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

Abilene.

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

Oh, Abilene, Abilene
