Riff

played over B chord in verses)

  There's a bullet in the heart tonight

  in the heart of Texas

  they shot it through their own backsides

  we are rolling home

  they shot the angel in the flesh

  and now she won't protect us

  we shot it to the friendly mass

  we are west, we're home

  raid the _______, the fort is empty

  like in the films of Hollywood

  and the angels are descending

  like Koresh said they would before too long

  sing our lone star song

  (play -- progression 1x)

  They had him nailed up to a T

  with that T for Texas

  his disciples with artillery

  they held the fort inside

  and by the time our story broke

  (?)_______________

  wheeled in a cloud of smoke

  around the T, dear god

  raid the ______, the fort is empty

  like the films of Hollywood

  and the choppers are ascending

  like ______ said they would before too long

  sing our lone star song

  lone star song

  the south, words can't help

  but escape my mouth easy prey

  down the house, day upon day

  day upon day, day upon day

  (play -- progression 3x)

  raid the ______, the fort is empty

  like in the films of Hollywood

  and the chopper's blast is blending

  with the crack of burning wood before too long

  sing our lone Star song

  lone star song

lone star

(play Bm-E-D repeatedly as song fades out)
