Alleys Of Austin Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Gsus4][G][Gsus4]

[Verse 1]
[G]Out in the
[D]al [Em]leys of [D]Austin
There's [Em]a song on the side
[D]of [C]the wall[G]
[Eb]The bricks and the bottles
and the mon[G]grels
Are trying to make sense
[F#dim]out of it[D] all[Em][D]
and the [Em]moon looks [D]all [C]too [G]familiar
[Eb]The kids say There ain't
no man in there
[G]While the [Eb]laid back baboon By
[G]the light of the Texas moon
Is combing his [F#dim]au burn h[D]air.[Em]
He's [D]just [Em]combing his
[D]au [C]burn hair.
[Gsus4]

[Verse 2]
[G]
Now out in the [D]alley[Em] s
[D]of Heaven
There's [Em]a funky feeling an
[D]gel [C]strumming chord[G]s.
While [Eb]the preachers sit and get
stoned in [G]their Buicks
Jesus Christ rolls [D]by [Em]in
his [D]Ford.
[Em]And the clouds are like
[D]the feather[C] s of sparro[G]ws
A [Eb]thousand different colors
of [G]grey.[Gsus4][G]
It's the [Eb]hustle of the paradise [G]bar room
And the glory of [F#m]hanging
[D]out[Em] in spa[D]ce
[Em]Lord knows Texans [D]love to hang [C]out in [Gsus4]space[G][D]
[Em][D][Em][D][C][G][Eb]
[G][D][Em][D][Em]
[D][C][G]
In the alleys of [D]Aus[Em]tin
and [D]Heaven
[Em]The song they're playing
[D]is [C]the[G] same.
[Eb]The jam sessions sound like the [G]gutters
As the muddy licks and stick
[D]s roll d[Em]own the d[D]rain
And [Em]the drainpipe she
[D]rolls out [C]to the [G]river
[Eb]And the Pedernales flows out to the [G]sea
And [Eb]the sea waters rise up to [G]Heaven
And rain back [C]down on the
al[D]leys of Austin
And you An[C]d m[G]e

[Outro 1]
