[Verse 1]
A#
There's a greyhound bus
F
Leavin' the great Northwest
A#
Takin' her tonight
F
Back down south to Texas
D#
She's been dancin' on tables
To pay rent and be able
Cm
To just get by and maybe stay clean.
[Chorus]

Abilene, Abilene
A# Gm D# Cm
Abilene, Abilene.
[Verse 2]
A#
Well her daddy'd get drunk
F
Then he'd hit her hard
A#
And her mama'd lie in bed
F
High on pills and talkin' to God
D#
But like her beautiful tattoos
These old memories she can't lose
Cm
Since she ran away at fifteen.
[Chorus]
A# Gm
Abilene, Abilene

[Verse 3]
A#
Starin' out the window
Gm
At the long cold night
A#
Ahead on the horizon
Gm
Is another string of bright lights
D#
She's dreamin' of a man she's goin' to meet
In a bar on an Austin street
Cm
Maybe this one won't be so mean.
[Chorus]

[Verse 4]
A# Gm
In a Texas bar there's a man sittin' alone
A# Gm
Thinkin' of a girl he swore he'd wait there for

But he's drinkin' beers and he's feelin' old
Rememberin' every lie he's told
Gm
'Til he changes his mind and he leaves.
[Chorus]
