Texas women

 

            D                                                         A

1. I’ve got some fond memories of San Angelo,

                                                                           D

    and I’ve seen some beauty queens in El Paso,

                                                                       G

    but the best lookin’ women that I’ve ever seen,

                                D               A               D

    have all been in Texas, and all wearin’ jeans.

 

         - G                D                    - A               D

I’m a      country ploughboy not a        urban cowboy,

         - G                  D               E                             A

and I       don’t ride bulls, but I have fought some men,

            - G              D               - A                 D

drive a       pickup truck trust in      God and luck,

         - G            D                 C – A – D

and I       live to love Texas wo………men.

 

          D                                                     A

2. I thought I’d seen beauty in far away places,

                                                        D

    til I looked upon those Houston faces,

                                                                  G

    spent Hollywood nights up in Beverly Hills,

                                           D                     A                     D

    but they weren’t nothin’ like one night down in Brownsville.

 

+ CHORUS  + E

 

                E                                              B7

3. I’m a pretty fair judge of the opposite sex,

                                                                       E

    and I ain’t seen nothin’ that will touch ‘em yet,

                                                                 A

    they may be from Waco or out in Lampasas,

                              E              B7                    E

    but one thing about it they all come from Texas.

 

         - A                E                    - B7             E

I’m a      country ploughboy not a        urban cowboy,

         - A                  E               F#                          B7

and I       don’t ride bulls, but I have fought some men,

            - A              E               - B7                E

drive a       pickup truck trust in      God and luck,

         - A            E                 D – B7 – E

and I       live to love Texas wo………men.

 

              - A            E           - B7               E

    I’m an      Oilier fan not a        soccer man,

                - A                  E         F#             B7

    and my      arms are red and so is my blood.

               A                E                  B7               E

    And they make it boil with that soft Texas drawl,

             - A               E               D - B7 - E

    and I      love ‘em all Texas wo……..men.
