A
She said she needed a break.
                   D
A little time to think.
                      Bm
Then she moved to Cleveland
                       E
with some guy named Leeland
                     A
that she met at the bank.

(repeat progression)

There's nothing wrong with Ohio
Cept the snow and the rain.
I really like Drew Carey
and I'd love to see that Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame.

(Pre-Chorus)
              D              A
So when your done, doing whatever,
                 D             A
and when your through, doing whoever,
                  F#m           E                      D
you know Denton county will be right here waiting for you.

(Chorus)
               D
Come back to Texas
                   A                   E
It's just not the same since you went away
                       D
Before you lose your accent
                 A                  E
And forget all about the Lone-star State
           F#m                  E
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
               E
And I've got every slow dance saved
               Bm                E              D
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway

(Verse II [same as verse I])
I think I made a mistake
It's not that easy to take
She went to make a deposit
Then she cleaned out her closet
Guess I'll sit here and wait

For her to come back home (I'd wish you come back home)
It shouldn't take very long (so long, so long)
I bet she misses the sunrise
And misses the fruit flies, but I could be wrong

(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
Come back to Texas
It's just not the same since you went away
I bet you missed your exit
And drove on through the Lone-star State
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
And I've got every slow dance saved
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway

(Bridge)
        D              A
Troy Aikmen wants you back
         D               A
Willie Nelson wants you back
 D              A
NASA wants you back
          D                  A
And the Bush twins want you back
   D               A
Pantera wants you back
      D                  A
And Blue Bell wants you back
  F#m
I got a premonition
     E
I'm taking a petition
         D                    E
And the whole state's gonna sign!

(chorus)
Come back to Texas
It's just not the same since you went away
Before you lose your accent
And forget all about the Lone-star State
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
And I've got every slow dance saved

(Last Chorus)
Come back to Texas
It's just not the same since you went away
Before you lose your accent
And forget all about the Lone-star State
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
And I've got every slow dance saved
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway
              F#m                E              D
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway
              F#m                E              D
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway.
 A
Yeah.
