[Intro]
Em D C Em D
[Verse]
Em G
Colorado's too cold The snow gets the best of me
C D
Just layin' there beside the fireplace looks like where you ought to be
Em G
Oklahoma's too rich with American history
C D
Kinda funny how it reminds me of all those books you used to read
[Pre-Chorus]
C D Em
And if stay gone much longer I might really go insane
Am 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 Houston, down in Matagorda Bay
Am C D
Up on 6th Street in Austin at the rodeo in Santa Fe
Em C Em
Might as well just lock me up in Huntsville if your memory's here to stay
Am 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 memory
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 Tennessee
[Chorus]
Em C G
And I keep seein' you in Houston, down in Matagorda Bay
Am C D
Up on 6th Street in Austin at the rodeo in Santa Fe
Em C Em
Might as well just lock me up in Huntsville if your memory's here to stay
Am C D G
'Cause no matter where I go I'll just be missin' you in a Texas kinda way
[Solo]
Em D C Em D
[Chorus]
Em C G
And I keep seein' you in Houston, down in Matagorda Bay
Am C D
Up on 6th Street in Austin at the rodeo in Santa Fe
Em C Em
Might as well just lock me up in Huntsville if your memory's here to stay
Am C D G
'Cause no matter where I go I'll just be missin' you in a Texas kinda way
Em Am C D G
Ah, no matter where I go I'll just be missin' you in a Texas kinda way
[Outro]
Em D C Em
