Intro: 
  F# G#m Ebm7
  G#m7 | G#m7 |
  F# F# F# F#sus2 |
  F#sus2 F# G#m Ebm7 |

  G#m7 | B |
  F# F# F# F#sus2 | F#

              G#m
Just when I thought I got him to
                        F#
Fall in love with Tennessee.
                G#m
I shoulda known better than to
                    F#    F#maj
Take him back to Abilene.
           Bmaj                       
I put him right back into her arms;
            C#             C#sus4 C#
I wasn’t a match for that kinda spark.

Chorus:
                             Bmaj
     She’s from Texas, I can tell
                  
     By the way
                       B         F#
     He’s two-steppin’ round the room.
     And judgin’ by the smile
            G#m
     That’s written on his face,
                           C#  C#add9
     There’s nothin’ I can do.

        C#
     It doesn’t take
       Bmaj
     A crystal ball to see
              B      Ebm
     A cowboy always finds a way
     To leave.
                            Bmaj
     Drinkin’ Jack all by myself.
   C#
     He’s choosin’ Texas,
           F#sus2
     I can tell.

Instrumental: 
  F# G#m Ebm7
  G#m7 | G#m7
  F# F# F# F#sus2 | F#sus2 F#

        F#           G#m
Well, I guess he forgot about the
                    F#
Smoky Mountain rain,
               G#m
Them old Hank tunes, the Memphis
                   F#  F#maj
Blues we used to sing.
           Bmaj           
He always loved Amarillo by Morning.
           C#
I shoulda taken that as a warning.

Chorus:
                             Bmaj
     She’s from Texas, I can tell
                  
     By the way
                       B         F#
     He’s two-steppin’ round the room.
     And judgin’ by the smile
            G#m
     That’s written on his face,
                           C#  C#add9
     There’s nothin’ I can do.

        C#
     It doesn’t take
       Bmaj
     A crystal ball to see
              B      Ebm
     A cowboy always finds a way
     To leave.
                            Bmaj
     Drinkin’ Jack all by myself.
   C#
     He’s choosin’ Texas,
           F#sus2 F# | F#sus2 F#   
     I can tell.

Bridge:
        F#   Bmaj
   When I’m eastbound and down and
      C#
   I can’t help but cry,
            Ebm7
   ’Cause I-40 gets lonelier with
   C#  
   Every mile,
          Bmaj
   I’ll know that his mind wasn’t
   C#
   Ever gonna change,
              G#m7
   ’Cause his heart still belongs
          C#        C#6 C#7  C#
   To the Lone Star State.

Chorus:
                             Bsus2
     She’s from Texas, I can tell
     By the way
                                 F#  
     He’s two-steppin’ round the room.
     And judgin’ by the smile
            G#m7
     That’s written on his face,
                           C#
     There’s nothin’ I can do,
     C#add9
     No, yeah.

        C#
     It doesn’t take
       Bmaj
     A crystal ball to see
              B      Ebm
     A cowboy always finds a way
     To leave.
                            Bmaj
     Drinkin’ Jack all by myself.
   C#
     He’s choosin’ Texas,
           Ebm    G#7
     I can tell, no.
                       Bmaj
     Drinkin’ Jack all by myself.
   C#
     He’s choosin’ Texas,
           F#   B     F#
     I can tell.
     C’mon baby.
