[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
G Blue eyes cried in the rain tears for it F Shiner Bock poured a beer for it C G The Lone Star shinin' in the sky G Santa Anna tried for it F Davy Crockett died for it C G If you've been there, you know why
[Pre-Chorus]
D Em C Sam Houston star-spangled it D Em C Jerry Jeff Bojangled it
[Chorus]
G You ain't been awake C 'Til you wake up in Texas D You ain't felt heartbreak G 'Til you break up in Texas G The best songs, the best bars G And you ain't seen stars C A7 'Til you look up in Texas D Now out of ten, it's eleven D I bet even in Heavеn G They say "up in Texas"
[Verse 2]
G They madе Lonesome Dove in it F Willie found his luck in it C G Underneath the "come and take it" flag G Billy Graham prayed for it F Jerry Jones paid for it C G It's hard to talk about and not brag
[Pre-Chorus]
D Em C Lucchese boots walked across it D Em C Billy Bob's honky-tonked it
[Chorus]
G You ain't been awake C 'Til you wake up in Texas D You ain't felt heartbreak G 'Til you break up in Texas G The best songs, the best bars G And you ain't seen stars C A7 'Til you look up in Texas D Now out of ten, it's eleven D I bet even in Heavеn G They say "up in Texas"
[Piano & Guitar Solos]
G G7 C A7 Oh, take me back to Texas, boys
D G
[Chorus]
G The best songs, the best bars G And you ain't seen stars C A7 'Til you look up in Texas D Now out of ten, it's eleven D Even in Heavеn G They say "up in Texas"
[Outro]
D It's a blue-bonnet blessing D A red-sunset obsession
