Mendocino County Line (Willie Nelson and LeeAnn Womack)
F dm
Counted the stars on the fourth of July
Bb C Wishin we were rockets burstin’ into the sky
F dm
Talking’ about redemption and leaving things behind
Bb C F
As the sun sank west of the Mendocino County line
F dminor
Excuses Monday morning’ feeling washed away
Bb C F
I orchestrated paradise, couldn’t make you stay
dm
You danced with the horses through the sands of time…….
CHORUS
Bb7 C
I have these pictures and I keep these photographs….
Bb
to remind me of a time
Bb7
These pictures and these photographs,
C F
let me know I’m doing fine
Gm Bb
I used to make you happy once upon a time
Bb C7 F
But the sun sank west of the Mendocino county Line
Verse 2 (same chords)
The two of use together felt nothing but right
Feeling very mortal every Friday night
Lost in our convictions-lips stained with wine….
As the sun sank west of the Mendocino County line
(to chorus)
Bridge:
Bb7 F
I don’t talk to you too much these days
Bb7 F
I just thank the Lord—pictures don’t fade
Bb7 F
I spent time with an angel just passin through
Dminor7 C Bb
Now all that’s left, is this image of you…oooooo…..
(chorus)
