[Verse]
Em G
Colorado's too cold, snow gets the best of me
C D
Just layin' there beside the fire place, looks like where you ought to be
Em G
Oklahoma's too rich, with American histo- ry
C D
Kinda funny how it re- minds me of all those books you used to read
C D Em
And if stay gone much longer, I might really go in- sane
Am Bm C D G
'Cause no matter where I go, I'll just be missin' you in a Texas kinda way
[Chorus]
Em C G
And I keep seein' you in Hous- ton, down in Matagorda Bay
Am Bm C D
Up on 6th Street in Aus- tin at the rodeo in Santa Fe
Em C Em
Might as well just lock me up in Hunts- ville, if your memory's here to stay
Am Bm C D G
'Cause no matter where I go, I'll just be missin' you in a Texas kinda way
[Verse]
Em G
New York's got all them lights its the city that never sleeps
C D
Detroit could sure build me a fast car to try and outrun your memo- ry
Em G
Montana skies go on for miles like the love you said you had for me
C D
But if I keep writin' all these sad songs, might as well just be in Tennes- see
[Chorus]
Em C G
And I keep seein' you in Hous- ton, down in Matagorda Bay
Am Bm C D
Up on 6th Street in Aus- tin at the rodeo in Santa Fe
Em C Em
Might as well just lock me up in Hunts- ville, if your memory's here to stay
Am Bm C D G
'Cause no matter where I go, I'll just be missin' you in a Texas kinda way
[Instrumental]
| Em | Em | D | D | C | C | Em | D
[Chorus]
Em C G
And I keep seein' you in Hous- ton, down in Matagorda Bay
Am Bm C D
Up on 6th Street in Aus- tin at the rodeo in Santa Fe
Em C Em
Might as well just lock me up in Hunts- ville, if your memory's here to stay
Am Bm C D G
'Cause no matter where I go, I'll just be missin' you in a Texas kinda way
Am Bm C D G
Ah, no matter where I go, I'll just be missin' you in a Texas kinda way
