*************** PUT ME ON A TRAIN BACK TO TEXAS ***************

written by Jim Hurt,Billy Nelson and Roy Clayborne

performed by Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings.



Verse 1: (Willie)
         D
	I've been on the road most all of my life
                                 A             
	Traveled from coast to coast

	In search of some pleasures and treasures and things
                                 D 
	Whatever pleased me the most

	Like bandanas and blue jeans and old cowboy clothes
                                        G
	That bring back an old country song
                                           D  
	About rough rides and red-eyes and old broken bones
             C/G             G            D 
	And railroad tracks running back home


Chorus: (Willie & Waylon)
         G                          D 
	Put me on a train back to Texas
              G                         D
	I've been where the highwaymen roam
         G                          D
	Put me on a train back to Texas
                C/G         G           D
	Wake me up when we reach San Antone
                C/G         G           D
	Wake me up when we reach San Antone


Verse 2: (Waylon)
         D 
	Mamma says home's where the heart is
                                   A
	Like Bob Wills said in a poem
	
	My heart is there in the middle of Texas
                           D
	Beside the old Alamo

	Like my broken in saddle and old leather boots
                                        G  
	I'm worn but i'm still going strong
                                   D 
	Cowboys can tell when the season is changing
           C/G            G           D 
	And i think it's time to move on


Chorus.
