[Verse 1]
 C          F                    C
You find pretty girls East and West
 F                             C
But the girls here in Texas are the best
           F           G           E7              A7
With my hand on my heart, I could set you a challenge
 D                 D7            G
You won’t find a girl like my Alice from Dallas


[Verse 2]
     C               F               C
The girls North and South of here’s fine
       F                           C
But there’s only one girl on my mind
     F              G          E7              A7
Her lips are like blooms and they never speak malice
       D        G          C
How I love my Alice from Dallas

[Verse 3]
 C              F                  C
I once loved a girl from the mountains
    F                              C
And I rushed like the flow of a fountain
         F           G             E7         A7
She was sweet as a rose but as the old story goes
    D                G              C               G
My heart would set sail when that train whistle’d blow


[Verse 4]
      C          F               C
So I told her it wouldn’t work out
         F                                 C
And she cried and she screamed and she shouted
     F          G           E         A7
She sure was a find but my golden chalice
 D           G            C
Lay here in Alice from Dallas

[Verse 5]
   D            A              D
My Alice she’s pure and she’s true
          G                         D
She does more than a woman should do
      G            A             F#7            B7
She takes off my boots when I’m feeling unbalanced
       E        A          D
How I love my Alice from Dallas
      G             A                 F#7               B7
She still holds my hand though these old hands are calloused
       E        A           D
How I love my Alice from Dallas
