[A] [E] [B]
[E] The honky tonks in Texas were [A] my natural [E] second home
Where you tip your hat to the ladies and the roads [B] of San Antonio
[A] I grew up on [E] music we call Western Swing
It don't matter who's in [A] Austin, [B] Bob Wills is [E] still the king
I can still remember [A] the way things were back [E] then
In spite of all the hard times I'd live [Gm] it all [B] again
Just [A] to hear the Texas [E] Playboys and Tommy Duncan sing
Makes me proud to be from Texas [B] where Bob Wills is [E] still the king
[A] You can see the Grand Ole Opry [E] in Nashville, Tennessee
It's the home of country music, home that we [B] all agree
But [E] when you cross that old Red River [A] Hoss that just don't [E] mean a thing
Cause once you're down in [A] Texas [B] Bob Wills is [E] still the king
[A] [E]
[B] [E]
[A] If you ain't never been [E] there then I guess you ain't been told
That you just can't live in Texas unless you [A#] got a lot [B] of soul
[E] It's the home of Willie Nelson, [A] the home of Western [E] Swing
And he'll be the first to [A] tell [B] you Bob Wills is [E] still the king
