Foy Vance – Alice From Dallas (Guitar)

 C          F                    C
You find pretty girls East and West

 F                             C
But the girls here in Texas are the best

           F           G           E7              A7
With my hand on my heart, I could set you a challenge

 D                 D7            G
You won't find a girl like my Alice from Dallas

     C               F               C
The girls North and South of here's fine

       F                           C
But there's only one girl on my mind

     F              G          E7              A7
Her lips are like blooms and they never speak malice

       D        G          C
How I love my Alice from Dallas

 C              F                  C
I once loved a girl from the mountains

    F                              C
And I rushed like the flow of a fountain

         F           G             E7         A7
She was sweet as a rose but as the old story goes

    D                G              C               G
My heart would set sail when that train whistle'd blow

      C          F               C
So I told her it wouldn't work out

         F                                 C
And she cried and she screamed and she shouted

     F          G           E         A7
She sure was a find but my golden chalice

 D           G            C
Lay here in Alice from Dallas

My Alice she's pure and she's true

          G                         D
She does more than a woman should do

      G            A             F#7            B7
She takes off my boots when I'm feeling unbalanced

       E        A          D
How I love my Alice from Dallas

      G             A                 F#7               B7
She still holds my hand though these old hands are calloused

       E        A           D
How I love my Alice from Dallas
