[D] [C] [A] [D]
[A] [C] On highway deep [G] within the heart [C] of Texas
I was just about as lost as I [F] could be
I [G] was driving around in circles
[Am] Trying to find the border
[D] Texas was as far as I [G] could see
Hey, well [C] I stopped and flagged [G] me down to state [C] police
I said my patience growing [F] might have been
[F] Can you help me get [F#m] the hell [C] out of Texas?
[A] He [D] just flashed me some old Longstar [C] Texas Grammy
And he said you can [G] get the hell [C] out of Texas
No matter how [G] hard you try
[E] Why in Texas we raise hell, [Am] son, just like you raise a crop
[D] It started with the [G] Alamo and it ain't gonna ever stop
[C] As long as there's a Houston and Austin
Amarillo, Lubbock, Dallas [F] and Fort Worth
