[A]
If [E] you're gonna play in Texas, [D] you gotta have a fiddle in the band.
That lead guitar is hot, but not [E] for a Louisiana man.
[F#] So rolls enough [E] that both are [D] fainted, love, and let's [A] all dance.
If you're gonna play [E] in Texas, [D] you gotta have a fiddle in [F#m] the band.
[D] [A]
I remember [E] down in Houston, [D] we were putting on [A] a show,
when a cowboy in [E] the back stood up [D] and yelled,
[E] He said, [A] we love what [E] you're doing, [D] boys [A] don't get us wrong,
there's just [E] something missing [A] in your song.
If you're gonna [E] play in Texas, [D] you gotta have a [A] fiddle in the band.
That lead guitar [E] is hot, but not [D] for a Louisiana [E] man.
[F#m] So rolls [E] enough that both are [D] fainted, love, and [A] let's all dance.
If you're gonna play [E] in Texas, [D] you gotta have a fiddle [F#m] in the band.
[D] [A]
[E] [D] [A]
So we dusted off [E] our boots and put [D] our cowboy hats [A] on straight.
Them Texans raised [E] the roof when Jeff [D] opened [E] up his case.
You [A] say y'all all [E] want a two-step, [D] you say you want a [A] do-si-do,
well here's a [E] fiddlin' song before [A] we go.
If you're gonna play [E] in Texas, [D] you gotta have [A] a fiddle in the band.
That lead guitar [E] is hot, but not [D] for a Louisiana [E] man.
[F#m] So rolls enough [E] that both are [D] fainted, love, and let's all [A] dance.
If you're gonna [E] play in Texas, [D] you gotta have a [A] fiddle in the band.
