Lyrics
"Austin Bound"
Music/Lyrics by John Kelly Wilson
Verse
Came to Music City
Dreams runnin through my head
So driven to make it big
That's the way I'd always been
Then I met you and you showed me
There's more to life than chasin fame
For that I'm forever in your debt
Wish we ended another way
Chorus
Now I'm Austin bound
Austin bound
Tennessee's in the rearview mirror
I'm headin home alone
I'm Austin bound
Verse
As dreams started to become reality
Guess somehow I lost my way
A sniff of success so intoxicating
Quickly faded away
Took a few wrong turns along that climb
Doesn't matter now what I did
I knew it was wrong and what it meant for us
So many regrets, I have to re-live
Chorus
Now I'm Austin bound
Austin bound
Tennessee's in the rearview mirror
I'm headin home alone
I'm Austin bound
Bridge
What I looked for when I came to Nashville
wasn't what I found
This Texas boy threw good luck away
Now I'm alone and Austin bound
Break
Chorus
Now I'm Austin bound
Austin bound
Tennessee's in the rearview mirror
I'm headin home alone
I'm Austin bound
I'm headin home all alone
I'm Austin bound
I'm headin home all alone
I'm Austin bound
