The Gulf of Mexico Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[F][C][G][C]

[Verse 1]
The Texas coastline [C]hold her
Close just [G]like a lady
And in their [Dm]time [G]they've
Weathered a storm [C]or [G]two.
[C]The river fee[G]d her water[C]s like
I [G]feed your [D]memory.[G]
The deeper I go the more I'm turning blue.
[C]

[Verse 2]
[F]The sandy beaches drift in time
And [Am]the changing tide I [G]know
Won't [C]bring me back to yesterday
And the [G]Gulf of Mexico.
[C][F][C][F][Am][G][C][G]
[C]The sails
out on the water will
[G]Come take [D]you [G]away.

[Verse 3]
When your [G]ship comes in I
know its [C]time [G]to go
And [C]the waves along the seawall
Tell [G]me nothings here to stay
And no man is an island
but I'm still [C]all alone.

[Verse 4]
[F]I'm weighing anchors from the past
As [Am]the south winds start to [G]blow
[C]Sailing out of yesterday
And [G]the Gulf of Mexico.
[C]I'l[Dm]l be [C]sai[F]ling out of yes[C]terday
And the [G]Gulf of [Dm]Mex [F]ico.[C]
[G][C]
