The Texas coastline hold her
G
close just like a lady
And in their time they've
C
weathered a storm or two.
The river feed her waters like I
G
feed your memory.
The deeper I go the more I'm
C
turning blue.

The sandy beaches drift in time
C G
and the changing tide I know
C
won't bring me back to yesterday
G
and the Gulf of Mexico.
C
The sails out on the water will
G
come take you away.
When your ship comes in I know
C
its time to go
and the waves along the seawall
G
tell me nothings here to stay
and no man is an island but I'm
C
still all alone.
F
I'm weighing anchors from the past
C G
as the south winds start to blow
C
sailing out of yesterday
G
and the Gulf of Mexico.
