Abilene

by Buck Owens

written by Lester Brown & John D. Loudermilk

C        E7       F              C

Abilene  Abilene  prettiest town I've ever seen

D7                      G7             C     F     C

Women there don't treat you mean in Abilene  my Abilene

E7

I sat alone most every night

F                C

Watch the trains pull out of sight

D7                     G7

Don't I wish they were carrying me back

   C        F     C

To Abilene  my Abilene

repeat #1

E7

Crowded city there ain't nothing free

F               C

Nothing in this town for me

D7                      G7

Wish to the Lord that I could be back

      C     F        C

In Abilene  sweet Abilene

repeat #1
