[D]
There's a girl down in Texas, [G] holds [Dm] hope in her eyes.
The smile so soft and [A] warming stays with you for miles.
[Bm] She's a lifetime [A] of happy years, [G] but she's a million memories.
[D] There's a girl [G] down in Texas, [A] and she's [D] waiting on me.
To [G] give her the river [D] walkings to the Broadway, [A] 6th [Bm] Street over [A] [G] LA,
and a [D] softened [A] margarita over a martini.
[G] Give me her [D] and a poncho, [A] bye bye right [Bm] now on the [A] free [G] road.
[D] Sleep in my [A] arms, right where she wants to be.
[D] There's a girl [A] down in Texas, [D] waiting on me.
[G]
[D] [G]
[F#m] [D] She's the Sunday morning stroll, [G] at the park [D] by the lake.
The answer to my prayers, [A] when I start to lose faith.
[Bm] But when I'm [A] on the lonely [G] road, chasing [D] my dreams.
There's a girl [G] down in Texas, [A] and she's [D] waiting on me.
To give [G] her the river [D] walkings to the [A] Broadway, 6th [Bm] Street over [A] [G] LA,
and a [D] softened [A] margarita over a martini.
[G] Give me her [D] and a poncho, [A] bye bye right [Bm] now on the [F#m] free [G] road.
Sleep [D] in my [A] arms, right where she wants to be.
[D] There's a girl down in Texas, waiting on me.
[G] [A]
[Bm] Takes an angel [A] of a woman to [G] do everything [D] she [Bm] needs.
To be [A] herself and [Dm] not [G] reliving, she'll find [A] time for me.
So [G] give her the river [D] walkings to the Broadway, [A] [Bm] 6th Street over [A] [G] LA,
and a [D] softened [A] margarita over a martini.
[G] Give me her [D] and a poncho, [A] bye bye right [Bm] now on the [F#m] free [G] road.
Sleep [D] in my [A] arms, right where she wants to be.
[D] There's a girl [A] down in Texas, waiting [Bm] on me.
[A] Oh, [G] there's a girl down [A] in Texas, in [D] love with me.
