Tequila Town - Brooks & Dunn
----------------------------
INTRO: G G D A A
D Bm G D
Left Laredo with the sun in my eyes, broken heart and a bloodshot sky
G D Em A
Been running since she left me alone, way up north in San Antone
D Bm G D
Days get long but I don't get far, spent last night in some low life bar
G D Em A Asus4 A
Found her memory in some Mezcal haze, lost my mind while the guitar plays
G A
CHORUS: I'm gonna carry this burden way out west
D G
Find a way to lay this hurt to rest
D Em
Live it up 'till I live her down
A G G D A
Lost in Tequila Town
D Bm G D
Left her standing in a tear-stained dress, cursed the day that I confessed
G D Em A
Wayward sins of a mortal man, watched the ring come off her hand
D Bm G D
Looking back on all I've lost, price I've paid ain't worth the cost
G D Em A Asus4 A
I'll run this road until it ends and maybe find my way back to her again
G A
CHORUS: I'm gonna carry this burden way out west
D G
Find a way to lay this hurt to rest
D Em
Live it up 'till I live her down
A G G D D G G D A
Lost in Tequila Town
G A
CHORUS: I'm gonna carry this burden way out west
D G
Find a way to lay this hurt to rest
D Em
Live it up 'till I live her down
A G G D
Lost in Tequila Town
D G G D
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...

Well, like I said, there may be some mistakes but hopefully you got the general
idea...
