INTRO: Left Laredo with the sun in my eyes, broken heart and a bloodshot sky Been running since she left me alone, way up north in San Antone Days get long but I don't get far, spent last night in some low life bar Found her memory in some Mezcal haze, lost my mind while the guitar plays CHORUS: I'm gonna carry this burden way out west Find a way to lay this hurt to rest Live it up 'till I live her down Lost in Tequila Town Left her standing in a tear-stained dress, cursed the day that I confessed Wayward sins of a mortal man, watched the ring come off her hand Looking back on all I've lost, price I've paid ain't worth the cost I'll run this road until it ends and maybe find my way back to her again CHORUS: I'm gonna carry this burden way out west Find a way to lay this hurt to rest Live it up 'till I live her down Lost in Tequila Town CHORUS: I'm gonna carry this burden way out west Find a way to lay this hurt to rest Live it up 'till I live her down Lost in Tequila Town Lost in Tequila Town Here are some lead parts I've managed to figure out from the original recording. Perhaps some parts are not 100% exactly like they're supposed to be but they're pretty damn close anyway...
