Intro Riff (3 times) - pause
[Chorus]
N.C. Am
I’m Drivin’ through Texas, down from New Orleans
Dm Am
Spendin’ all my money, buying Gasoline
Dm Am
Hiding in the Shadows, runnin’ from the law
F G Am
I’m drivin’ through Texas, bound for Mexico
N.C. Am
A jealous-hearted man, a woman that lied
Dm Am
It ended with a bullet right between the eyes
Dm Am
Yesterday the Sheriff was knockin’ on the door
F G Am
I’m drivin’ through Texas bound for Mexico
[Bridge - same chord pattern]
[Chorus]
N.C. Am
I’m Drivin’ through Texas, down from New Orleans
Dm Am
Spendin’ all my money, buying Gasoline
Dm Am
Hiding in the Shadows, runnin’ from the law
F G Am
I’m drivin’ through Texas, bound for Mexico
N.C. Am
Take a letter to my mother a message from her son
Dm Am
I’m living with a finger on the Trigger of a gun
Dm Am
But mama don’t you worry don’t you cry no more
F G Am
I’m drivin’ through Texas bound for Mexico
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
N.C. Am
I’m Drivin’ through Texas, down from New Orleans

Dm Am
Hiding in the Shadows, runnin’ from the law
F G Am
I’m drivin’ through Texas, bound for Mexico
F G Am
I’m drivin’ through Texas, bound for Mexico
F G Am
I’m drivin’ through Texas, bound for Mexico
