I count a thousand tumbleweeds

Where the Llano Estacado

C
I've seen the thunder heads descend
C/B
Am
and rip into the ground
Em
The twisted hand of Heaven

spreading terror all around

Sending farmers into deeper debt

and ranchers to the grave

Where towers mark the end of time

with slowly spinning blades

'Til the water table falls
C

below the reach of human kind
Am
G
C
I ain't crying, that's west Texas in my eye
