Well... I been packed up some two weeks ago.
My truck's gased up and ready to roll.
GF
Just might get a ticket or two,but that's alright.
CGC
Cause I'm going to Texas to see my baby tonight.
C
Thinkin' bout her sends chills up my spine.
There's a feelin' I get when I cross the state line.
GF
Her pickup truck will be next to mine.
CGC
Cause I'm going to Texas to see my baby tonight.
F
Colorado's quite a sight
FG
But I'd rather see my baby in those rugged mountain jeans.
FGC
Gettin cold at night,she can keep me warm
GFC
If you know what I mean ...........,LoneStar shining bright.
Shines a little brighter,when she's with me.
CGC
So I'm going to Texas to see my baby tonight.
C
Live a long life livin out on the road.
When the only friend of yours' is the radio.
GF
But even he fades out every now and then.
FF
Girl I made a mistake I ain't goin to make again.
C
The closer I get seems the faster I go.
The only thing between us now is New Mexico.
GF
It's just a matter of time before I hold her tight.
CGC
Cause I'm going to Texas to see my baby tonight.
