[Verse 1]
D                    Bm
Left Laredo with the sun in my eyes
G                       D        
Broken heart and a bloodshot sky
G                      D             
Been running since she left me alone
Em              A
Way up north in San Antone
D                   Bm
Days get long but I don't get far
G                        D
Spent last night in some low life bar
G                        D
Found her memory in some Mezcal haze
Em                     A
Lost my mind while the guitar played


[Chorus]
             G                 A
I'm going to carry this burden way out west
D                 G
Find a way to lay this hurt to rest
D                G
Live it up until I live her down
Em        A        G
Lost in Tequila town

[Verse 2]
D                      Bm                   
Left her standing in a tear-stained dress
G                     D            
I cursed the day that I confessed
G                 F#m    D       
Wayward sins of a mortal man
Em                    A              
Watched the ring come off her hand
D               Bm              
Looking back on all I've lost
G               D                     
Price I've paid ain't worth the cost
G                    D            
I'll run this road until it ends
          Em               A              
And maybe find my way back to her again

            
[Chorus]
             G                 A
I'm going to carry this burden way out west
D                 G
Find a way to lay this hurt to rest
D                G
Live it up until I live her down
Em        A        G
Lost in Tequila town

[Chorus]
             G                 A
I'm going to carry this burden way out west
D                 G
Find a way to lay this hurt to rest
D                G
Live it up until I live her down
Em        A        G
Lost in Tequila town
