My truck's gased up and ready to roll. 
G                                         F
Just might get a ticket or two,but that's alright.

Cause I'm going to Texas to see my baby tonight.

Thinkin' bout her sends chills up my spine.

Her pickup truck will be next to mine.

F                                                     G
But I'd rather see my baby in those rugged mountain jeans. 
F             G       C
Gettin cold at night,she can keep me warm 
 G                F                    C
If you know what I mean ...........,LoneStar shining bright.  
Shines a little brighter,when she's with me.

Live a long life livin out on the road. 
 
When the only friend of yours' is the radio. 
G                                F
But even he fades out every now and then. 
F                        F
Girl I made a mistake I ain't goin to make again. 
C
The closer I get seems the faster I go. 
 
The only thing between us now is New Mexico. 
G                               F
It's just a matter of time before I hold her tight.
