Back Home In Texas by Casey Donahew Band


 



                Back Home In Texas







INTRO:
B  F#  A  B
B  F#  E


VERSES:
B            F#             A          B
I went up to New York City, well its a Yankee pity
B           F#                    E
Those crazy bastards don't have a clue

I went down to Tennesee, Rocky Top I had to see
But I left there because the corn won't grow
I went down to New Orleans, let me tell you 'bout that scene
Well I got drunk on Bourbon Street


CHORUS:
       B         F#                A                B
And I been up all night sippin' on whiskey drinkin' beer
  B            F#                  E
A-back home in Texas wouldn't live anywhere but here
B               F#                 A             B
Thinkin' 'bout all those nights I spent so far away
        B             F#               E                      E
But I'm back home in Texas and this is where I'm goona stay


I went out to California, my friends I have to warn yuh
They got a kick-ass drink out there
And Las Vegas took all my money, didn't think that it was funny
I lost two grand but I got drunk
In Colorado seekin' gold, snow it gets real old
Its hard to ski in cowboy boots

[Chorus]

Oklahoma's near, but its not home I fear
Got a better view from the south
And Mexico's too hot, don't think that its my spot
Never heard of Shiner Bar

[Chorus]
