G Em C G With the midnight sky and big brown eyes did you stumble on a pearl? D C Wake me from a thousand meter stare, G Em With a halo hanging just a little too heavy, C G And another evenings curls, D C Mixed up with the morning in your hair,
G Em C G Like a country girl that came across a cat out in the rain, D C Like a country girl you played it true to form, G Em C G Gonna lay a little pity on the prodigal son who parted with his name, D C Little shelter for a stray out in the storm
G Bm You can try to put the past behind, C G It’s on your clothes like burning pine, Am C G D Is it gin or turpentine you keep in your canteen? G Em G D C If pressure makes a diamond babe, I still might come out clean
G Em C G In the simplе solitary joy of temporary comfort, D C Well, I closed my еyes and felt I’d slept a hundred thousand years, G Em C G Awaking I would disregard the terms of my surrender, D C Took every bad fork in the road and look who’s standing here, G Em C G We were victims of eternal love for almost half a morning, D C Said I know you can’t go home again, but tell me where you land, G Em C G Oh, here’s to yet another chance you get to be reborn, D C And here’s to greener, higher hills to make your final stand
G Bm You can try to put the past behind, C G It’s on your clothes like burning pine, Am C G D Is that gin or turpentine you keep in your canteen? G Em G D C If pressure makes a diamond babe, I still might come out clean

G Em C G For a walking ghost that southern coast was a lawless piece of Heaven, D C There were bayou dives and oyster knives and liquor for to drown, G Em And the Q-Beam lights and the rooster fights, C G And the months I don't remember, D My winning hand went busted, C And my luck was now winding down
G Em In the southeast Texas setting sun, C G I sit surveying damage done, D We wish you luck and fortune hon, C We're closing in an hour, G Em Backed up to the trinity, C G With no more road to run, D C No longer can I wander on alone on my own power
G Bm And try to put the past behind, C G Perhaps it’s only in your mind, Am C G D They close the doors at nine at Channel Marker 17, G Em G D C If pressure makes a diamond, babe, I still might come out clean
G Em Tejanos curse in Spanish, C G And a Cajun eyes the weather, D C There’s black mud on the belly of a yellow colt I ride, G Em C G Never thought I’d catch myself so calm out in the open, D As a gulf storm deals in bucket loads, C And hits from every side
