C                              F          C
I was thinkin' of you when the rice birds flew

C                                 F       C
When the false dawn came with the mornin' dew                         

         G                                  F
You're a thunderstorm ragin' outside my garage

           C                               F      C
You're the white shirt peakin' through my camouflage

I was thinkin' of you and I won't forget
The tale of the turtle and biotech
I can not dance, but I can hang on
to some sweet memory down in Overland

I was thinkin' of you at the Mardi Gras 
Fords and Chevy's like I never saw
I wish you were here to dance with me
    C                     F           C   Em7 (walk down)
to hear this Cajun symphony

I was thinkin' of you at the L.A. Bar
where I got so drunk I couldn't drive my car
I was dreamin' about you with my 10 oz. beer
dreamin' sweet daydreams wishin' you were here

I was thinkin' of you with the braids in your hair
Oh, Houston, Texas or anywhere
I was dreamin' about you in my changin' ways
I still think about you in my travelin' days

Lazy C chord stroke

Well, I was thinkin' of you where the sunset glows
down the Mississippi River where the Gulf wind blows
I was dreamin' about you in the Florida league 
I was wishin' you were next to me
