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

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

Oh, Abilene, Abilene
