Intro
C# A#m F# D#m (4x)
[Verse 1]
C#
There's a greyhound bus
G#
Leavin' the great Northwest
C#
Takin' her tonight
G#
Back down south to Texas
F#
She's been dancin' on tables
To pay rent and be able
D#m
To just get by and maybe stay clean.
[Chorus]
C# A#m F# D#m
Abilene, Abilene
C# A#m F# D#m
Abilene, Abilene.
[Verse 2]
C#
Well her daddy'd get drunk
G#
Then he'd hit her hard
C#
And her mama'd lie in bed
G#
High on pills and talkin' to God
F#
But like her beautiful tattoos
These old memories she can't lose
D#m
Since she ran away at fifteen.
[Chorus]
C# A#m
Abilene, Abilene
F# D#m C# A#m
There's a town ahead that you've never seen
F# D#m F# D#m
Maybe it's better if you get off there and try to
F# F#
Forget everything
C# A#m F# D#m
Abilene.
[Verse 3]
C#
Starin' out the window
A#m
At the long cold night
C#
Ahead on the horizon
A#m
Is another string of bright lights
F#
She's dreamin' of a man she's goin' to meet
In a bar on an Austin street
D#m
Maybe this one won't be so mean.
[Chorus]
C# A#m
Abilene, Abilene
F# D#m C# A#m
There's a town ahead that you've never seen
F# D#m F# D#m
Maybe it's better if you get off there and try to

Forget everything

[Verse 4]
C# A#m
In a Texas bar there's a man sittin' alone
C# A#m
Thinkin' of a girl he swore he'd wait there for
F#
But he's drinkin' beers and he's feelin' old
Rememberin' every lie he's told
A#m
'Til he changes his mind and he leaves.
[Chorus]
C# A#m
Abilene, Abilene
F# D#m C# A#m
There's a town ahead that you've never seen
F# D#m F# D#m
Maybe it's better if you get off there and try to
F# F#
Forget everything
C# A#m F# D#m
Abilene.
