"Might Have Been In Austin"
By, Max Stalling
From the CD, "Comfort In the Curves"
[D] There's a girl waiting for me in Austin
[A7] She knows I'm coming through today
She's [G] waiting to see if I'll stop by
Waits to [Bm] see what I [A7] have to [D] say
[D] There's a strong wind blowing in Austin
[A7] Strange for this time of year
So I [G] wonder if it's not a message of sorts
[Bm] Something that [A7] I should [D] hear
A [Bm] message I'm [A7] supposed to [D] hear
[D] My head says keep on blowing
My [A7] heart says you're out of your mind
[G] Enoughs enough you're only just so tough
You need to [Bm] learn to [A7] read the [D] signs
[D] Of a road that's going nowhere
Just [A7] leading you around the bend
To where [G] another bend waits again
Just like [Bm] every [A7] other [D] time
Just like [Bm] every [A7] other [D] time
Instrumental:
[D] As a poet and a dreamer
Who [A7] part-times as a fool
You [G] can't ignore the unexplored
You can't [Bm] live with what [A7] might have [D] been
[D] Well, there's a might have been in Austin
And [A7] though it hasn't happened yet
It's [G] more a question of when this time
And [Bm] less a [A7] question [D] if
Yeah, it's [Bm] less a [A7] question [G] if
Those [Bm] might have beens and [A7] those then agains
Can [G] sure push and pull and can [D] tear you
And [Bm] hinting winds and [A7] those hidden bends
Can [G] sure leave your compass a [D] mess
But if the [Bm] to and fro ever [A7] let you go
The [G] shock would [D/F#] surely [Em] kill you
So you [Bm] just move on
Cause it's [A7] all you've ever [D] known
Instrumental:
[D] There's a might have been in Austin
And [A7] though it hasn't happened yet
It's [G] more a question of when this time
And [Bm] less a [A7] question [D] if
It's [Bm] less a [A7] question [D] if
It's [Bm] less a [A7] question [D] if [G][A7][D]
