Bluest Eyes In Texas

I play this song in dropped-D tuning. I think it is easier
to play the fingerstyle parts this way. Also played with
capo on the 1st fret.

That lonesome Texas sun was setting slow                  And         
  A                                     D

    In the rearview mirror I watched it go

The bluest eyes in Texas are haunting me tonight

Like the stars that fill the midnight sky her memory fills my mind

(Where did I go wrong) Did I wait too long or can I make it right
     A                       F#       E  D

Second Verse
A                          D
Another town another hotel room
A                                D
Another dream that ended way too soon
Bm             F#                 E
Left me lonely praying before the dawn
Bm                F#                D
Searching for the strength to carry on.

|----------------------------------------------------------|
    Bm              F#              E
For every heart you break you pay a price
      Bm               F#           D
But I can't forget the tears in her blue eyes
