A E Bm
The sunset streams across the silver screen
G D A
And takes the cowboy down
Bm E
And Texas seems a long, long way
A D A
From this run down mining town
Bm E
England's hope and glory
A D A
Has hit that lonesome trail
Bm E
And drugstore dreams of limousines
Bm E
Marlboro men and Levi jeans
Bm E
Steel guitars and rhinestone queens
A D A
They never let Me down
Bm E
And I dreamed I saw America
A D A | E ..
From a two bit-border town

Thought I'd get across the border

See what I could see

Put a little order

Between the Lone-Star State and Me

She was standing by the freeway

I was short on company

She was a girl in Texas

But a woman in Tennessee

.. F#m G G/C
My pick-up ain't no limousine
D F#m G G/C
But there's room enough for two
D F#m G A
As she slipped in down by My side
G Bm A
The State-line came into view
G A
She said She'd a mind to travel
D F#m G
I said, that is just fine by Me
A D F#m G A
She was a girl in Texas

.. F#m G G/C
We found a little bar-room
D F#m G G/C
With a polka playing band
D F#m G A
We took to trading smiles

And We took to holding hands

And We danced - We danced into the morning
D F#m G
Changed our history
