[Em] [B] [E]
Here's a song I wrote on a plane between Dallas and Austin, going to El Paso.
Whoops.
Now this is what gave us the idea to come down here.
This is a song about a guy that probably did as much for our kind of music as anybody.
Well the honky tonks in [A] Texas were my natural second home.
[E] Well you tip your hat to the ladies in [B] the rows of San Antone.
[A]
I grew up on music [E] that we call western swing.
It don't matter who's in Austin, [B] Bob Welch is [E] still the king.
Lord, I can still remember [A] the way things were [E] back then.
In spite of all the hard times, I'd live it all [B] again.
[A] Hear the Texas playboys [E] and Tommy Duncan sing.
Makes me proud to be from Texas [B] where Bob Welch is [E] still the king.
You [A] can hear the granola cream [E] in Nashville, Tennessee.
It's the home of country music, a home that we all [B] agree.
But when [E] you cross that old Red River, [A] horse, that just [E] don't mean a thing.
Once you're down in [B] Texas, Bob Welch is [E] still the king.
[Abm] [A] [E]
[B]
[E] Well [A] if you ain't never been there, [E] then I guess you ain't been told
that you just can't live in Texas unless you got [B] a lot of soul.
[E] It's the home of Willie Nelson, [A] a home [E] of western swing.
He'll be the first to tell [B] you Bob Welch is [E] still the king.
