Tom: A

                  D   E             A
Yeah, I like Texas,  Ain?t it fine here
          F#m                       D
Like to pick my guitar down in Lukenbach
         E
And drink that Shiner Bock beer
                 D  E                           A
Yeah I like Texas man there ain?t no doubt
         D                  E                   A
Just listen to me cause I know what I?m talkin about

         A                       D
Well from Dalhart to Del Rio and out El Paso way
          A
I?ll be doin fine on Houston time
                 E
When the sun sets on the Copano Bay
               A
Well from way up where the Red River flows
         D
And on down to the Rio Grande
         A
I was born a native Texican
              E                          A
And I?m proud to say that I am

A
Well there?s old dancehalls and the little cafe?s
         D
Where you can get a taste of the Lone Star state
A                                                          E
Strap on your boots and have yourself a laugh or two
            A
Well there?s no line dancin, just straight romancin
         D
Hill country love is what I fancy
                 A                                        E         A
Where streams run clear and Lord the skies they are so blue

[Chorus]
                  D   E             A
Yeah, I like Texas,  Ain?t it fine here
          F#m                       D
Like to pick my guitar down in Lukenbach
         E
And drink that Shiner Bock beer
                 D  E                           A
Yeah I like Texas man there ain?t no doubt
         D                  E                   A
Just listen to me cause I know what I?m talkin about

         A                           D
It?s a two day old burrito on a lukewarm beer to go
         A
On the Sunday side of a roadtrip weekend
E
Lordy I was feelin so low
         A
Then somebody flipped on the jukebox
         D
And I heard old Bob Wills say
                 A            D
Won?t you stay all night, stay a little longer
        E
So I held on another day

[Chorus]
                  D   E             A
Yeah, I like Texas,  Ain?t it fine here
          F#m                       D
Like to pick my guitar down in Lukenbach
         E
And drink that Shiner Bock beer
                 D  E                           A
Yeah I like Texas man there ain?t no doubt
         D                  E                   A
