[Primera Parte]

            Dm                                          C
Just when I thought I got him to fall in love with Tennessee
                Dm                                 C
I shoulda known better than to take him back to Abilene
          F
I put him right back into her arms
           G
I wasn't a match for that kinda spark

[Estribillo]

                       F
She's from Texas I can tell by the way
                            C
He's two steppin' round the room
                                Dm
And judgin' by the smile that's written on his face
                      G
There's nothin' I can do
                  F
It doesn't take a crystal ball to see
                Am
A cowboy always finds a way to leave
                       F
Drinkin' Jack all by myself
G                         C    Dm    C
He's choosin' Texas I can tell

[Segunda Parte]

                    Dm                               C
Well, I guess he forgot about the smoky mountain rain
              Dm                                  C
Them old Hank tunes the Memphis blues we used sing
          F
He always loved Amarillo By Morning
          G
I shoulda taken that as warning

[Estribillo]

                       F
She's from Texas I can tell by the way
                            C

                                Dm
And judgin' by the smile that's written on his face
                      G
There's nothin' I can do
                  F
It doesn't take a crystal ball to see
                Am
A cowboy always finds a way to leave
                       F

[Puente]

         F                        G
When I'm eastbound and down and I can't help but cry
        Am                    G
Cause I-40 gets lonelier with every mile
     F                         G
I'll know that his mind wasn't ever gonna change
          Dm                         G
Cause his heart still belongs to the lone star state

[Estribillo]

                       F
