D
Well it's a Bloody Mary Mornin' baby left me without warnin'
E
sometime in the night
A
So I'm flyin' down to Houston - forgetting her, the nature of my flight
Verse 1:
A E
As we taxi down the runway, the smog & haze reminding me of how I feel
A
Just a country boy who's learnin' that the pitfalls of the city are
extremely real
A E
All the night life & the parties - temptation & deceit the order of the day
A A7
Well it's a bloody mary mornin' cause I'm leavin' baby somewhere in LA
Chorus:
D E
Well it's a Bloody Mary Mornin' baby left me without warnin sometime in the night
A
So I'm flyin' down to Houston with forgetting her the nature of my flight

"Take it Willie..."
Strum G chord while lead guitar improvs the little solo part.
Don't feel like tabbing it
Verse 2:
A E
Our golden jet is airborn - flight 50 cuts a path across the mornin' sky
A
And a voice comes on the speaker reassuring us flight 50 is the way to fly.
E
A hostess takes our order - coffee, tea or somethin' stronger to start off
the day
A A7
Well it's a bloody mary mornin' cause I'm leavin' baby somewhere in LA
End Chorus:

Well it's a Bloody Mary Mornin' baby left me without warnin sometime in the night
A
