[Intro]
D Cadd9 G Cadd9 D Cadd9 G Cadd9 D
 
[Verse 1]
D Bm
We burned up so many miles
G A D
Between the Lone Star and Sunshine states
D A Bm
People ask which one do you like the best
G A
Man it’s really hard to say
D Cadd9 G
We like songs about Cowboys
D Cadd9 G
We like songs about the beach
D A Bm
But we ain’t just one or the other
G A
I guess it’s somewhere in betweeeen.
 
[Chorus 1]
G D
I got a Shiner in my left hand
G D
And a Landshark in my right
G A Bm
There ain’t nothing like a Sarasota sunset
G A
Or a South Padre Saturday night
G A D
Paradise for me is somewhere between
Bm A G Cadd9 G
A steel guitar and a steel drum band
G D
One boot in the red dirt
A D
And one bare foot in the sand.
 
Cadd9 G Cadd9 D
Let's go
 
[Verse 2]
D A Bm
Well now we’re headed south out of Key Largo
G A D
On a sunny A1A kind’a day
D A Bm
But I’m thinkin’ ‘bout Gruene Hall and Luckenbach
G A
And that Houston rodeo stage
D A Bm
Now this Resistol straw makes perfect shade
G A D
But so does this tall palm tree
D A Bm
Lookin’ at my life through these Maui Jim’s
G A D
You know it all looks pretty good to me
 
[Chorus 2]
G D
I got a Deep Eddy in my left hand
G D
And a Siesta Key in my right
G A Bm
Down in Corpus and at Key West
G A
you know it’s always Saturday night
G A D
Now I might get home on the back of a horse
Bm G Cadd9 G
Or on a Cape Coral catamaran.
G D
One boot in the red dirt
A D
And one bare foot in the sand.
 
[Instrumental]
Cadd9 G D Cadd9 G D
 
[Bridge]
Cadd9 G
Now I love’em both, but you know you can’t be
Cadd9 D
Two places at one time.
Cadd9 G
And the perfect compromise
Cadd9 Asus A
Is that Texas Gulf Coast life.
 
[Chorus 3]
G D
With a margarita in my left hand
G D
and some Tito’s in my right
G A Bm
There ain’t nothing like a Pensacola sunset
G A
Or a four day Saturday night
G A D
Paradise for me is somewhere between
Bm A G Cadd9 G
A steel guitar and a steel drum band
G D
One boot in the red dirt
A D Cadd9 G
And one bare foot in the sand.
 
[Outro]
G D
It’s that coastal combination
G Cadd9 G
That makes me who I am
G D
One boot in the red dirt
A D
And one bare foot in the sand.
Cadd9 G Cadd9 D Cadd9 G Cadd9 D
Come on
