[INTRO]
D#m C# D#m F# C# .
[VERSE ONE]
D#m C# Just when I thought I got him to fall in love with Tennessee
D#m C# I should've 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 kind of spark
[CHORUS]
F# She's from Texas, I can tell by the way
C# He's two stepping 'round the room
D#m And judging by the smile that's written on his face
G# There's nothing I can do
F# It doesn't take a crystal ball to see
A#m A cowboy always finds a way to leave
F# Drinking Jack all by myself
G# C# He's choosin' Texas, I can tell
[INSTRUMENTAL]
D#m F# C#
[VERSE TWO]
D#m C# Well, I guess he forgot about the Smoky Mountain rain
D#m C# Them old Hank tunes, the Memphis blues we used to sing
F# He always loved "Amarillo by Morning"
G# I should've taken that as a warning
[CHORUS]
F# She's from Texas, I can tell by the way
C# He's two stepping 'round the room
D#m And judging by the smile that's written on his face
G# There's nothing I can do
F# It doesn't take a crystal ball to see
A#m A cowboy always finds a way to leave
F# Drinking Jack all by myself
G# C# He's choosin' Texas, I can tell
[BRIDGE]
F# G# When I'm eastbound and down and I can't help but cry
F# G# 'Cause I 40 gets lonelier with every mile
F# G# I'll know that his mind wasn't ever gonna change
D#m G# 'Cause his heart still belongs to the Lone Star State
[CHORUS]
F# She's from Texas, I can tell by the way
C# He's two stepping 'round the room
D#m And judging by the smile that's written on his face
G# There's nothing I can do
F# It doesn't take a crystal ball to see
A#m A cowboy always finds a way to leave
F# Drinking Jack all by myself
G# C# He's choosin' Texas, I can tell
Drinking Jack all by myself
He's choosin' Texas, I can tell
[OUTRO]
Come on, baby
Oh yeah
Just when I thought I got him to fall in love with Tennessee
