You [A7/6]say you're [E9]not from [A7/6]Texas.   [E9]
M[A7/6]an, as [E9]if I couldn't [A7/6]tell.     [E9]
Well you [A7/6]think you [E9]pull your [A7/6]boots on [E9]right,
and [B7#9]wear your [E9]hat so [A7/6]well.   [E9]
So pardon me my laughter,
'cause I sure do understand.
Even Moses got excited,
when he saw the promised land.

(Chorus)
  That's [A7/6]right, you're [D7]not from [E7]Texas
  That's [A7/6]right, you're [D7]not from [E7]Texas
  That's [A7/6]right, you're [D7]not from [E7]Texas
  But [A7/6]Texas[Db7] wan[D7]t's [Eb7]you a[E7]nyway.

(repeat)

See I was born and raised in Texas,
and it means so much to me.
Though my girl comes from down in Georgia,
we live up near Abilene.

As we were driving down the highway,
she asked me, "Baby what's so great?
How come you're always goin' on
about your Lone-Star State?"

I said,

(Chorus 2 times)

Oh the road, it looked so lovely,
as she stood there on the side,
and she grew smaller in my mirror,
as I watched her wave goodbye.

(Chorus - chords only 1 time)

Now those [D9]boys from Caro[A7/6]lina,
they [D9]sho' enough could [B7#9]sing.  [E9]
When they [A7/6]came on [E9]down to [A7/6]Texas,  [Bb7/6]
we all [B7/6]showed them how to [E9]swing.

And now [D9]David's back in [A7/6]Spartanburg,
and ol' [D9]Champ is out on the [B7#9]farm,   [E9]
and Uncle [A7/6]Walt is [E9]home with [A7/6]Heidi,  [E9]
[B7#9]hiding in[E9] her lovi[A7/6]n'.     [E9]
(Chorus 2 times)

So won't you let me help you mister.
Just pull your hat down the way I do,
and buy your pants just a little longer,
and next time somebody laughs at you,

Just tell 'em

(Chorus 2 times)
