Take Me To Texas

           Em                 D
Take me to Texas, two hundred years 
ago
        Em                         
Where a pride rose from the ashes 
      D
of San Jacinto
                  Em               
It still beats in every heart, like
   D
 a battle cry
        Em                   
Where I was born, where I was 
            C
raised, so when I die

[CHORUS]
           G                       
Take me to Texas, on the open 
      D
range; the Rio Grande is in my veins
    Em
Its heaven there, and so my prayer
    C                              
Is that you’ll take me anywhere in 
G
Texas
                      D            
The only home I know. I’m a child 
      D#dim7         Em
of the Alamo, and the Yellow Rose
   C
So when I go

           Em              D
Take me to Texas, where my daddy 
worked

          Em                       
Where his blood and sweat and tears
              D
 are still in that red dirt
          Em             D
Wild Palo-minos run. Cow-boys are 
kings
    Em                             
And if I stray too far, I’ll let my

 Lone Star dreams

        C                         
There’s something in the sky, and in
G
 your momma’s eyes
   Am                      G
So even if you try to move away.
       C                  
You’ll end up on some road 
                      G
somewhere, with your thumb up in the
 air
          Am                  
When they ask you where you’re 
                     D
headed, you’ll just say

           G
Take me to Dallas, Fort Worth and 
San Antone
D                           
Houston, Laredo, Galveston or 
  Em
Austin, maybe Abilene
    C                              
The closest thing I’ve ever seen to
 G
 Heaven’s the Gulf of Mexico
D                  D#dim7         
I’m a child of the Alamo, and the

Yellow Rose

So when I go, take me to Texas, 
     D
mmmhmmm

           Em    C                
Take me to Texas.  Oh, take me to

Texas.  Take me to Texas
