Standard (EADGBE)

I SING SONGS ABOUT TEXAS

SING THEM OFTEN AS IF SHE WAS SOME OLD LOVER I USED TO KNOW

WISH I COULD FOLLOW THEM BACK TO THE HOMELAND EVERY TIME

 I HEAR ONE ON MY RADIO

TWIN FIDDLES PLAYING IN MY MEMORY

MY DADDY SANG THE WONDERS OF OLD COW TOWN

SILVER HAIR AND HE'S STILL THERE UNDER A SKY SO WARM AND FAIR

I TELL YOU FRIENDS THERE'S A SONG IN EVERY TOWN.

SING ME ONE MORE SONG ABOUT OLD SAN ANTONE

SEEMS LIKE A DREAM NOW IT WAS SO LONG AGO

GUY CLARK HE CAN BE JUST LIKE A COAT FROM THE COLD

SONGS ABOUT TEXAS SING THEM OFTEN EVERY TIME

I THINK I'VE GOT NO HOME

NOTHING SHORT OF THE GOSPEL HYMNS

I GUESS THAT'S WHY FOLKS KEEP WRITING 'UM

AND WHEN I DIE

I WANT TO GO THERE TOO

SOMEDAY I HOPE TO WALK ALONG HEAVENS STREET

I'LL STILL BE LOOKING FOR MY TACO MEAT

AND I SWEAR I HEAR A STEEL GUITAR

JUST RISING IN THE AIR

Chorus

WHEN THE NIGHT IS REAL REAL STILL

I SWEAR I COULD HEAR A WHIPPEREWILL

SHE KNOWS THERE'S MUSIC IN THE IN THE DIRT DOWN THERE

HILL COUNTRY RAIN IS A CLEANSING THING AND I HAVE TO SEE ONE

AND I'LL BE SITTING IN A SHALLOW CREEK WITH NOTHING TO DO

Chorus

LAST CHORUS

SING ME ONE MORE SONG ABOUT OLD SAN ANTONE

THEM HONKY TONK ANGELS AND THEIR LONELY BE HIVE PAIN

WISH I WAS STOWED AWAY ON SOME FAST MOVING TRAIN GOING HOME

SONGS ABOUT TEXAS SING THEM OFTEN EVERY TIME

I THINK I'VE GOT NO HOME
