  			Gm                         Bb                         
I'd heard The Burritos out in California  
       F                    C 
could fly higher than The Byrds 
Gm                  Bb 
Roger McQuinn had a 12 string guitar.  
        F                      C 
It was like nothing I'd ever heard 
Dm                               C 
And The Eagles flew in from the west coast 
          Dm                            C 
Like The Byrds they were trying to be free 
          Bb                         Am 
While in Texas the talk turned to Outlaws 
       C          Bb       F  
Like Willie and Waylon and me. 
 
Hey! 
G 
Well that ?somewhere? Texas music is in the make 
                                     D 
And we've been making music that is free 
G                            C 
Doing one night stands and playing with our bands 
  G       D         G 
Willie, Waylon and me 
 
Oh Mad Dog!   go to lead 
 
G  Gm                         Bb 
   They say The Beatles were just the beginning 
    F                     C     
of everything music could be 
Gm                           Bb 
Just like The Stones I was rolling a lone   
        F                    C 
Like a ship lost out on the sea 
      Dm                       C 
And Joplin would die for the future 
     Dm                 C 
And Dylan would write poetry 
        Dm                         Am 
And in Texas the talk turned to Outlaws 
                  Bb       F  
Like Willie and Waylon and me
