    Bowling for Soup

Okay, good song, hilarious band, my first submission. So I saw a few other
 ways this was written out, I like them, they're just fine, I just wanted to
 add in my own little change that I thought sounded a bit better and was a 
bit more comfortable to play. So here it is.

standard tuning, capo on 2nd.

(Verse I)
                        AShe (x02220@1)said she needed a break.
                   DA (xx0232@1)little time to think.
                      BmThen (x24432@1)she moved to Cleveland
                       Ewith (022100@1)some guy named Leeland
                     Athat (x02220@1)she met at the bank.

(repeat progression)

There's nothing wrong with Ohio
Cept the snow and the rain.
I really like Drew Carey
and I'd love to see that Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame.

(Pre-Chorus)
              D (xx0232@1)            ASo (x02220@1)when your done, doing whatever,
                 D (xx0232@1)           Aand (x02220@1)when your through, doing whoever,
                  F#m (244222@1)         E (022100@1)                    Dyou (xx0232@1)know Denton county will be right here waiting for you.

(Chorus)
               DCome (xx0232@1)back to Texas
                   A (x02220@1)                 EIt's (022100@1)just not the same since you went away
                       DBefore (xx0232@1)you lose your accent
                 A (x02220@1)                EAnd (022100@1)forget all about the Lone-star State
           F#m (244222@1)                EThere's (022100@1)a seat for you at the rodeo
               EAnd (022100@1)I've got every slow dance saved
               Bm (x24432@1)              E (022100@1)            DBesides (xx0232@1)the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway

(Verse II [same as verse I])
I think I made a mistake
It's not that easy to take
She went to make a deposit
Then she cleaned out her closet
Guess I'll sit here and wait

For her to come back home (I'd wish you come back home)
It shouldn't take very long (so long, so long)
I bet she misses the sunrise
And misses the fruit flies, but I could be wrong

(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
Come back to Texas
It's just not the same since you went away
I bet you missed your exit
And drove on through the Lone-star State
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
And I've got every slow dance saved
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway

(Bridge)
        D (xx0232@1)            ATroy (x02220@1)Aikmen wants you back
         D (xx0232@1)             AWillie (x02220@1)Nelson wants you back

   D (xx0232@1)             APantera (x02220@1)wants you back
      D (xx0232@1)                AAnd (x02220@1)Blue Bell wants you back
  F#m
I got a premonition
     EI'm (022100@1)taking a petition
         D (xx0232@1)                  EAnd (022100@1)the whole state's gonna sign!

(chorus)
Come back to Texas
It's just not the same since you went away
Before you lose your accent
And forget all about the Lone-star State
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
And I've got every slow dance saved

(Last Chorus)
Come back to Texas
It's just not the same since you went away
Before you lose your accent
And forget all about the Lone-star State
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
And I've got every slow dance saved
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway
