C                           D7
If you've got a road map of Texas

        F               G7        C
You can see that it's a wide open state

                      D7
From Amarillo down to Beaumont

        F               G7          C
You can bet that it's a honky-tonky place


D7                                 E7
They might like to rock 'n roll in Dallas

   G7            A7        D7
Or disco down on Galveston Bay

                                     E7
But when God made them West Texas cowboys

   G7            A7          D7
He gave them the Pecos Promenade



Lead off with the Cotton-Eyed Joe

E7
Bucking winged and heel and toe

G7                    A7          D7
Hold me close for the Pecos Promenade


Big sign hanging by the door

E7
Sawdust on an old dance floor

G7                   A7          D7
Tip your hat for the Pecos Promenade


         C                            D7
When the sun starts going down on the prairie

        F         G7           C
And the starlight falls on the state

                                    D7
That's when this cowgirl needs me a cowboy

   F      G7          C
To do the Pecos Promenade


D7                         E7
Tonight's the first I time saw him

       G7         A7           D7
We can hear those twin fiddles play

                                          E7
Well Houston starts to feel like Lonestar heaven

   G7           A7          D7
As we dance the Pecos Promenade



E7
Bucking winged and heel and toe

G7                    A7          D7
Hold me close for the Pecos Promenade


Big sign hanging by the door

E7
Sawdust on an old dance floor

G7                   A7          D7
Tip your hat for the Pecos Promenade


   F      G7          C
To do the Pecos Promenade
