Too Far From Texas

F#m D E A   A D E A


[Verse 1]
F#m          D          E       
   There's a plane, it's headed 
    A     F#m            D        
for London,  twenty-four hours 
 E             A
more and he'll be on it
F#m            D           E    
   And I can't show my love, and
         F#m    A             D  
 I can't stop it. Oh, I can't 
    E A
stop it


[Verse 2]
F#m          D          E       
   There's a house there, 
     A      F#m         D         
somebody's waiting,  somebody 
 E           A
else's arms will wrap around him
F#m            D     E          
   And in that moment, what will
    F#m       A              D   
 he think then, when I can't 
     E A
touch him


[Chorus]
F#m         D             E     
   Maybe my love could fly over 
    A
the ocean
F#m         D                  E
   Maybe my heart should try to 
           A
leave him alone
F#m           D          E      
   All that I really know is 
       F#m
that he's goin'
A            D      E            
Too far from Texas, too close to 
F#m F#m D E A
home

F#m     D        E       
   In a room just outside of 
    A      F#m               D   
Houston,  that's where I spend my
             E             A
 nights, trying to get through to 
him
F#m             D          E    
   He says he's comin' back in 
     A     F#m             D    
every letter,  but he might 
E             A
never, no he might never


[Chorus]
F#m         D             E     
   Maybe my love could fly over

   Maybe my heart should try to

   All that I really know is 
       F#m
that he's goin'
A            D      E            
Too far from Texas, too close to

[Bridge]
D                 E         A   
 Does he know how long I've 
            D
waited for this love to come
D                        E      
Does he know I'm holdin' on and 
F#m                  G#m         
that won't change no matter where
      F#m D E A
 he's gone
