Lonely East TX Nights by Whiskey Myers
This is a great tune by one of my favorite TX bands.
The Em7 in this tune can be easily replaced with an Em if you prefer.
The D in this song is accented with a Dsus2 and
Dsus4 (D - Dsus2 - Dsus4 - D) or (D -
Dsus2 - D - Dsus4). Whichever you prefer.
Tuning: Standard
Intro: Em7, Cadd9, D
Em7 Cadd9 D
Same old song on the radio tonight
Em7 Cadd9 D
One about wine and roses and candlelight
Em7 Cadd9 D
But I'm getting all from you with every town that I play
Em7 Cadd9 D
Maybe this distance is more than we can take
Break (2X):
Em7, Cadd9 D
Em7 Cadd9 D
Somewhere in east Texas your out alone
Em7 Cadd9 D
But I can�t dry your tears on the telephone
Em7 Cadd9 D
But I'm coming back to you I swear I�ll make it right
Em7 Cadd9 D
I�m making my way back home on a red eye midnight flight
Chorus:
Em7 Cadd9 D
Oooo� baby here I'm comin' home
Em7 Cadd9 D
Cause I can't love you on the telephone
Em7 Cadd9 D
Oooo� darlin I swear I'll make it right
Em7 Cadd9 D
No more lone� ly east Texas nights
Em7 Cadd9 D
No more lone� ly east Texas nights
Lead Break: (4X)
Em7, Cadd9, D
Chorus:
Em7 Cadd9 D
Oooo� baby here I'm comin' home
Em7 Cadd9 D
Cause I can't love you on the telephone
Em7 Cadd9 D
Oooo� darlin I swear I'll make it right
Em7 Cadd9 D
No more lone� ly east Texas nights
Em7 Cadd9 D
No more lone� ly east Texas nights
Chorus: (Muted)
Em7 Cadd9 D
Oooo� baby here I'm comin' home
Em7 Cadd9 D
Cause I can't love you on the telephone
Em7 Cadd9 D
Oooo� darlin I swear I'll make it right
Em7 Cadd9 D
No more lone� ly east Texas nights
Em7 Cadd9 D
No more lone� ly east Texas nights
