Key Db

[Intro]
Dm    C    Dm  F  C

[Verse 1]
            Dm               
Just when I thought I got him
                           C
 to fall in love with Tennessee
                Dm         
I shoulda known better than 
                        C
to take him back to Abilene
          F
I put him right back
 into her arms
           G
I wasn't a match for 
that kinda spark

[Chorus]
                       F
She's from Texas I can tell
 by the way
He's two steppin' round
     C
 the room
And judgin' by the smile
        Dm
 that's written on his face
                      G
There's nothin' I can do
                  F
It doesn't take a crystal
 ball to see
                Am
A cowboy always finds 
a way to leave
                       F
Drinkin' Jack all by myself
G                  
He's choosin' Texas
       C    Dm    C
 I can tell

[Verse 2]
                    Dm       
Well, I guess he forgot about 
                        C
the smoky mountain rain
              Dm              
Them old Hank tunes the Memphis 
                    C
blues we used sing
          F
He always loved Amarillo
 By Morning
          G
I shoulda taken that as warning

         F                     
When I'm eastbound and down and
   G
 I can't help but cry
        Am              
Cause I-40 gets lonelier 
      G
with every mile
     F                       
I'll know that his mind wasn't
  G
 ever gonna change
          Dm                 
Cause his heart still belongs 
        G
to the lone star state

[Chorus]
                       F
She's from Texas I can tell
 by the way
                            C
He's two steppin' round the room
                              
And judgin' by the smile that's
  Dm
 written on his face
                      G
There's nothin' I can do
                  F
