Neon Lights in Tyler

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Down in Tyler, Texas, neon lights aglow Charlie-O's was rockin', all them years ago A beer in every hand, and a smile I'll never lose One look across that dance floor, girl, I knew [Chorus] Tina, you're my sunshine, all my days Forty years of loving, in a thousand ways Through the storms and glory, you stood by my side Pretty good, my darling — you're my joy, my pride [Verse 2] Married in the springtime, back in eighty-six A ring, a prayer, a duty, hearts that couldn't quit You wore that fur in San Diego air When I marched as honor man, I saw you there [Chorus] Tina, you're my sunshine, all my days Forty years of loving, in a thousand ways Through the storms and glory, you stood by my side Pretty good, my darling — you're my joy, my pride [Bridge] We carried grief we don't forget A little soul we never met But heaven held our hands so tight And love kept burning through the night [Verse 3] From Oklahoma prairies to the Japan shore Parris Island mornings, the desert we adore Chad grew up beside us, a family, a home Twenty years of service, but I never walked alone [Chorus] Tina, you're my sunshine, all my days Forty years of loving, in a thousand ways Through the storms and glory, you stood by my side Pretty good, my darling — you're my joy, my pride [Outro] Still holding on, still grateful, still true Tina, sweet Tina, I'd marry you anew
