Wheels of laredo Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]On [G]a w[D]inter night in Webb County,
Texas
On the North Bank of the
mighty Rio [F#m]Grande
I was [G]watching the jungle
fires a- burnin'
Across the bor[D]der of a not-
so- distant [A]land
And the [D]echoes of the church bells
that were swingin'
Could be heard from Guadalupe
Market [F#m]Square
There was a [G]girl down there
in the south side of the river
She [D]had feathers tied into
her long black [A]hair

[Verse 2]
And [G]if I was I was White-
Crowned Sparrow
Well I [D]would float upon the
southern skies [A]of blue
But I'm [D]stuck inside
[Bm]the wheels of [G]Laredo
[A]Wishing I was rolling back to you
[D][A]

[Verse 3]
[D]
I put on my favorite jacket
for Jamboozie
I painted up my eyes and
wore my [F#m]beads
There was a [G]band playing "To God
Be the Glory"
There were [D]people dancing all
around [A]the street
There were [D]barrels on the sidewalk
that were burning
And a fortune- teller readin'
people's [F#m]hands
And I [G]swear,
I heard those church bells ringing
'Cross the bor[D]der of a not-
so- distant [A]land

[Verse 4]
Singing, [G]if I was White-
Crowned Sparrow
Well I would [D]float upon the
southern skies [A]of blue
But I'm [D]stuck in[A]side
[Bm]the wheels of [G]Laredo
[A]Wishing I was rolling back [D]to you
[G]If I was White- Crowned Sparrow
Well I would [D]float upon the
southern skies [A]of blue
But I'm [D]stuck in[A]side
[Bm]the wheels of [G]Laredo
[A]Wishing I was rolling back to [D]you

[Verse 5]
[D]I'm stuck in[A]side [Bm]the wheels
of [G]Laredo
[A]Wishing I was rolling back [C]to you[G][D]
Wish I [C]was rolling [G]back, back [D]to you
Wish I was [C]rolling [G]back to [D]you
Wish I was [C]rolling [G]back to you[D]
