[Intro]
D G D G A [Verse]
D I walked the limestone road
up to Charlie’s shop D For Frito Lays and a soda pop And stare at a girl
A
on a poster I remember D He drank Lone Star Beer
from a pull top can D Pee and moan about Uncle Sam He’d stack his cans and
G
weld em all together A Leather and steel covered up his toes A Tobacco stain on the tip of his nose A spark in his eye
D
every time he had the hammer D He shake my hand then the dominos D Put his cigarette out and The Possum on G He and I would sing along to Bartender's Blues A And Lord I wonder
Bm
whose gonna fill his shoes G A D Shooting the moon in Texas 42 [Interlude]
D G A D
G A [Verse] D Soon I’s kicking around
with a tougher crowd D That drank too much and
talked too loud We'd pick guitars and
A
tune on carburetors D There was Papa Chicken and
Johnny Hughes D Shooting 8 ball with crooked cues I’d stack my quarters
G
on the corner of the table A I’d rack ‘em up they’d knock ‘em down A Sharking every drunk in town And any man around
D
that didn’t know better D But every morning at the break'a dawn D They’d put that pot of coffee on Throwing bones and
G
talking ‘bout the news A Good ol' boys doing all
Bm
that they could do G A D Shooting the moon in Texas 42 [Interlude]
D G
A D A [Verse] D Now I’ve made my bids and
I’ve caught my tricks D I don’t talk about politics I work the rigs and
A
melt the steel together D I can tune up a GM SBC D Pick a little sing a little harmony G Call my shots with English on the cue A And all the things that
Bm
they don’t teach in school G A Bm Like shooting the moon in Texas 42 G A D Shooting the moon in Texas 42 [Outro]
