Lone Star Lullaby

[Instrumental Intro | slow | fingerpicked guitar | harmonica] [Verse 1 | tender | intimate gravelly vocal] Stars out tonight like somebody cares Sitting on the porch in my old wooden chair Texas sky so wide it swallows you whole Nights like this one got a way with your soul [Chorus | gentle | aching] Lone star lullaby, sing me to sleep Got memories too heavy and too good to keep Lone star lullaby, soft and slow Rocking me back to the only home I know [Verse 2 | intimate | tender] Smell of cedar smoke and the red Texas clay Everything I am started somewhere this way Old guitar beside me, cold coffee gone warm Quiet as a prayer before the coming storm [Harmonica Solo | mournful | slow | call and response] [Chorus | gentle | aching] Lone star lullaby, sing me to sleep Got memories too heavy and too good to keep Lone star lullaby, soft and slow Rocking me back to the only home I know [Outro | barely there | fade to silence] Lone star lullaby… carry me home…
