G                             G7          C 
I've got some friends down in Houston who know me quite well 

        G                                     D7 
They'll be more than happy to put me up for a spell 

      G           G7            C      Am 
I can hang out or hide out whichever I choose 

     G                                D7           G     D7 
They won't ask me questions about why I've got the blues 


           G       G7          C 
I've got a Houston solution in mind 

       G                                D7 
All it takes is a call on the telephone line 

          G               G7          C           Am 
And I can leave all these problems in Nashville behind 

           G       D7          G 
I've got a Houston solution in mind 


                   G7      C 
Well my daddy once told me you can't run away 

     G                                      D7 
Your troubles will follow and find you some day 

        G         G7               C        Am 
There's no use to argue cause he's probably right 

         G                      D7          G      D7 
But I've run out of options and I'm leaving tonight 


           G       G7          C 
I've got a Houston solution in mind 

       G                                D7 
All it takes is a call on the telephone line 

          G               G7          C           Am 
And I can leave all these problems in Nashville behind 

           G       D7          Em 
I've got a Houston solution in mind 


           G       D7          G 
I've got a Houston solution in mind 

                   C    G 
I've got a Houston solution
