[A] [Em]
Have you heard [E] the story of a girl named Beth now [F] known as Tex?
Her life's [E] tale is a bloody trail, her [Am] name fits like a [Em] glove.
Her daddy's sad as she slammed the door, she'd said to him, I'm Beth no more, [F] my last dream
is to kill [Em] for green, but first I'll join the Corps.
Her daddy said, you're just a girl, what makes you think that you won't sink?
[E] My name is Tex and I'm like a half-smack playground in the [G] world.
She's a woman, she's a woman, [Dm] she's a woman, she's a [Am] woman, she's a woman, she's a woman,
[C] she's a woman, she's [D] a woman, [E] she's a woman.
Basic turn, her guns gold, she had it made, she'd hit by trade, a [C] massive kill, she proved
her skills, make the blood run cold.
[G]
Her name is [Dm] Beth, her name is [Am] Beth, her name is Beth, [C] her name is [D] [G] [E]
Beth, her name is Beth.
[Em]
[E] Now when I saw Tex inside a bar, sittin' rye with some apple pie, with a distant stare
like she didn't [F#] care, she said, what's with the tar?
[Em] [G#m]
[E]
I must admit my lips went nuts on Butterbar, she had his face all red, she's too good in
her drip, the bullets said, boy, you better [Em] run.
Texas [E] said, sir, keep your peace, my heart is free, so is he, I'd give it to you, and
the man who's true, the safety's more released.
He drove before he replied, but Tex was hot, he was hot, he laid dead while [Em] Texas led,
Prims are on our side.
[G]
Yellow nose of Texas, glad [Dm] he's back, only snogs have to help on [A] her back.
Double Tex, she'll get you like a [C] truck, [D] Double Tex, she'll mess [G] you [E]
up.
[D] [E]
Texas [Em]
[E] said, this could be my last, I guess, I gotta go, but now you know I want a song
to live along, it's a fair request.
[A] [Em]
Texas made it out of her, with her one heat, I did eat, I think of Beth while I'm walking
down, like a [G] mockingbird.
[Dm] Yellow nose of Texas, glad he's [Am] back.
