Notes:
In the verse it seems that Peter does not hit the high e string but he
strums every chord once and then the stays at the melodic strings til the
next chord.
[D5]If the storm doesn't [Am7]kill me
the [C]government will[G]
D5 Am7 Fill1
I've gotta get that out of my head
It's a [D]new day to[Am7]day and the [C]coffee is [G]strong
D Am7 Fill11
I finally got some rest
So a man's put to task and challenges
I was taught to hold my head high
Collect what is mine,
Make the best of what today has
D C Fill2
Houston is filled with promise
D C
Laredo's a beautiful place
D C Fill2
and Galveston sings like that song that I loved
[F]Its meaning has not been [G]erased
And so there are claims forgiven
And so there are things that are gone
Houston is filled with promise
Laredo is a beautiful place
and Galveston sings like that song that I loved
Its meaning has not been erased
[F]And some things, they fall to the wayside
[G]Their memory is yet to be [D5]stilled
[F]Belief has not failed me
And [G]so I am put to the test [D5]
