[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
G She packed up her suntan lotion C G And her bathing suits last night G I drove her out to the airport G D7 She caught an early morning flight G It seems like this time every year C G She gets the urge to go C G I'm sitting high on a barstool D7 G She's high above the Gulf of Mexico
G N.C.
[Chorus]
D Cadd9 G G7 C I'll just hang around this honky-tonk in Houston G D7 Wondering what she sees in islands and palm trees G G7 C If she wanted sand, she could have gone to Galveston G D7 G Could it be the coast of Texas isn't far enough from me?
[Slide Guitar/Fiddle Solo]
G G7 C
G D7 G
[Verse 2]
G She's soaking up the sun in Jamaica C G I'm soaking up the suds back here G She kicks back with a Mai Tai G D7 I pop the top on a Lone Star Beer G Her postcard reads "I wish you were here" C G But I'll bet that's not true C G 'cause I might embarrass her out on the beach D7 G In my swimming trunks and cowboy boots
G N.C.
[Chorus]
D Cadd9 G G7 C I'll just hang around this honky-tonk in Houston G D7 Wondering what she sees in islands and palm trees G G7 C If she wanted sand, she could have gone to Galveston G D7 G G7 C Could it be the coast of Texas isn't far enough from me? G D7 G Cadd9 G D G I hope some Caribbean cowboy don't steal her love from me
