Worn Out Blues

(Blue Haze)


Verse 1

Every road down in Texas leads a little bit west of south
Every yellow rose of Texas has some desert dust in her mouth.
Tryin' to make a livin' as a poor, poor, man,
I've worn out my car, my wife, my weapon, and my land.

Verse 2

Dog scared up a rabbit, but the gun misfired.
Got that old truck running, it still needs new tires.
Wife is growing ornery, seems so worn and cold
Crops last summer barely made back the seed I sowed.
Tryin' to make a livin' as a poor, poor, man,
I've worn out my car, my wife, my weapon, and my land.

Bridge-1

Gravel road, gravel road, lead me home.
Bluebonnets, just a blue haze
On the tall grass down by the road.
Gravel road, gravel road, lead me home.
Bluebonnets, just a blue haze
On the tall grass down by the road.

Verse 3

If this land could have just a little more rain,
We could make a go.
If I had a unicorn, I could sell it for a pot of gold.
If I had one wish, I'd go back where we used to be,
Bought a new truck, and this plot of land,
This is where we'd wished we'd be.
Tryin' to make a livin' as a poor, poor, man,
I've worn out my car, my wife, my weapon, and my land.

Bridge12

Gravel road, gravel road, lead me home.
Bluebonnets, just a blue haze
On the tall grass down by the road.
Bury me in the bluebonnets close to a gravel road
Just a blue haze that you might see
When you're prayin' for my soul

Coda

Just a blue haze that you might see
When you're prayin' for my soul,
Just a blue haze that you might see
When you're prayin' for my soul,
When you're prayin' for my soul,
When you're prayin' for my soul,
Are you're prayin' for my soul?
