intro- 
C                    G      D                       G 
well take me home to texas, its where im meant to be 
C                    G                D 
like a cowboy on the prarie wild and free 
C                    G           D                C            
where the grand ole oprey is a dancehall down in gruene 
                     G        D                     G C G CD  
well take me home to texas, its where im meant to be 


G                                          C                 
ive been up and down this highway, a hundred times before, 
        G                                  D 
but i dont recall it ever being quite this long, 
G                                 C 
one night to go on a two week run of one night stands, 
     D 
till i get to take some time off for the road, 
C                                           D 
i can see that lonestar guideing me back home, 
 
Chorus- 
C                                    D 
Nashville's nice, it aint Austin Texas, 
G                    G7                    Em 
the tennesee river's nothin like the rio grande, 
C                         D                       
the sunset on the smokeys is quite a sight to see, 
 G                 G7                 Em 
but nothin like blue bonnetts in the spring, 
C                                 D 
to tell the truth, i like both places, 
   C           D                   G C G CD 
tennesee's nice, but it aint texas. 


G                                             C 
I like the Memphis blues and the big ole hills of knoxville, 
    G                                             D 
but my hearts around New Braufuls and ole Gruene Hall, 
 G                                          C 
i got the pedal to that floor board, just to see how far it'll go, 
 D 
i gotta keep these wheels a turnin, til they carry me back home,
