Bluebonnets on the hillside, [Am] my laurel in the air,
[D] Smile on the face of people in need, [C] cause they ain't going [G] nowhere.
Oh, your smile has never been brighter, [C] and your body never looked [Am] so fine.
[D] Eyes a while away, a beautiful day, a beautiful [G] Texas sunshine.
If you will feed the dogs, [Am] and honey bring me another beer,
[D] Come over here and sit by me, [C] and tell me baby how [G] you feel.
Well I know the time has come, [C] that I got to be [Am] moving on,
But [D] I'll always say, a beautiful day, a beautiful Texas [G] sunshine.

Well if I knew what I was doing, [Am] I'd have left a long time ago,

Well it sure does hurt me baby, [C] to see a honey slit and [Am] cry,
But [D] you got to understand, I'm a moving man, I'll be back by [G] and by.
[D] And we'll just a while away, a beautiful day, a beautiful Texas [G] sunshine. Hey!
