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

CHORUS: I'm gonna carry this burden way out west

        Live it up 'till I live her down

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... 
 
(Intro) 
             G               D           A                       D 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
-----T---333-2-----------333-2---------------------------------------------- 
---------A---------2-4-------------2--------H-P----------------------------- 
-------------B---------------------------4-----4-5-4-2------H--2--------H--2 
-0-------------------------------------------------------------0-2---/4----0 
-2-------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
------------------------ 
 
(After the first chorus) 
             G              D            A           D 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
-----T------------------333-2----------------------------------------------- 
-------- 
-A------------------------2---------H-P------------------------------------- 
-----B-----------5--------------4------4-5-4-2------------------------------ 
-------- 
---------2-5-----------------------------------H-P---5---------------------- 
---------333--------------------------------------5-7-5--------------------- 
-------- 
 
(Solo) 
             G              D               G            D      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------10 
--9--T------------------333-2-----------333-2--------333-2------------------ 
7-10--10 
-A------------------------2---------------2-4----------2------------7-9----- 
-----B-----------5--------------4----------------------------4-------7------ 
-------- 
---------2-5---------------------------------------------------------------- 
---------333---------------------------------------------------------------- 
-------- 
 
...and then down to A 
 
(Ending) 
             G              D 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
-----T------------------333-2----------------------------------------------- 
-------- 
-A------------------------2------------------------------------------------- 
-----B-----------5--------------4------------------------------------------- 
-------- 
---------2-5---------------------------------------------------------------- 
---------333---------------------------------------------------------------- 
-------- 
 
 
Well, like I said, there may be some mistakes but hopefully you got the general 
idea...
