  Intro:  B-E-D (2x)
            B (x2444x@1) There's a bullet in the heart tonight
         E (022100@1)      D (xx0232@1) in the heart of Texas
       B (x2444x@1)  they shot it through their own backsides
         E (022100@1)     D (xx0232@1) we are rolling home
       B (x2444x@1) they shot the angel in the flesh

     B (x2444x@1) we shot it to the friendly mass
         E (022100@1)         D (xx0232@1)  we are west, we're home
   A (x02220@1)                           D (xx0232@1) raid the _______, the fort is empty
              Bm (x24432@1) like in the films of Hollywood

       B (x2444x@1) They had him nailed up to a T
            E (022100@1)    D (xx0232@1)     
  with that T for Texas
      B (x2444x@1) his disciples with artillery
                 E (022100@1)   D (xx0232@1) they held the fort inside
      B (x2444x@1) and by the time our story broke
       E (022100@1)        D (xx0232@1) (?)_______________
     B (x2444x@1) wheeled in a cloud of smoke
             E (022100@1)     D (xx0232@1) around the T, dear god
   A (x02220@1)                         D (xx0232@1) raid the ______, the fort is empty
            Bm (x24432@1) like the films of Hollywood

       Bm (x24432@1)             F#m (244222@1)            D (xx0232@1) like ______ said they would before too long

       Bm (x24432@1)                D (xx0232@1) but escape my mouth easy prey
           A (x02220@1)           Bm (x24432@1) down the house, day upon day
           G (320003@1)         E (022100@1) day upon day, day upon day

           Bm (x24432@1)             F#m (244222@1)           D (xx0232@1) with the crack of burning wood before too long
   F#m (244222@1)             B (x2444x@1) sing our lone Star song
