Dead In Dallas Chords

(ver. 1)
Original Artist
Dead in Dallas
 	   written 2005
I was under the influence of Warren Zevon at the time...sans narcotics, of course.
I think this'd sound better with a piano, but I can't play.


CAPO I

INTRO: D  G D  D  A A7    D  G D    G D   A7 D

D            G        D
My heart is dead in Dallas
D                         A       A7
Is there something you forgot to tell us
D                          G          D
Something that may have slipped your mind
G            D          A7    D
And saved us all this wasted time

D                  G       D
I don't know why I act surprised
D                          A       A7
Could it be that I have covered my eyes
D                            G       D
The truth is small but it is clearly seen
G             D           A7        D
But I'll be damned if it means anything


CHORUS:
G              D          G
How can you expect me to be
D                       G          A7
Any more than what you made out of me
G                       D        G
My wings are broken and I can't fly
D                      G       A        D
Your expectations are just too high, oh


D  G D  G D  A7 D


BRIDGE:
Bm                    G      D
This Texas city is haunted tonight
G                    A              D
By the ghost of what I thought was right
Bm                     G                A
Take a shadow lead it into the light, tonight


INTRO

D            G       D
My heart is dead in Dallas
D                          A      A7
Is there something you forgot to tell us
D                          G           D
Something that may have slipped your mind
G            D          A7    D
And saved us all this wasted time


CHORUS

D                     G        A        D
Your expectations are just too high, oh
