Intro: 
  G Am Em7
  Am7 | Am7 |
  G G G Gsus2 |
  Gsus2 G Am Em7 |

  Am7 | C |
  G G G Gsus2 | G

              Am
Just when I thought I got him to
                        G
Fall in love with Tennessee.
                Am
I shoulda known better than to
                    G     Gmaj
Take him back to Abilene.
           Cmaj                       
I put him right back into her arms;
            D              Dsus4  D
I wasn’t a match for that kinda spark.

Chorus:
                             Cmaj
     She’s from Texas, I can tell
                  
     By the way
                       C         G
     He’s two-steppin’ round the room.
     And judgin’ by the smile
            Am
     That’s written on his face,
                           D   Dadd9
     There’s nothin’ I can do.

        D
     It doesn’t take
       Cmaj
     A crystal ball to see
              C      Em
     A cowboy always finds a way
     To leave.
                            Cmaj
     Drinkin’ Jack all by myself.
   D
     He’s choosin’ Texas,
           Gsus2
     I can tell.

Instrumental: 
  G Am Em7
  Am7 | Am7
  G G G Gsus2 | Gsus2 G

        G            Am
Well, I guess he forgot about the
                    G
Smoky Mountain rain,
               Am
Them old Hank tunes, the Memphis
                   G   Gmaj
Blues we used to sing.
           Cmaj           
He always loved Amarillo by Morning.
           D
I shoulda taken that as a warning.

Chorus:
                             Cmaj
     She’s from Texas, I can tell
                  
     By the way
                       C         G
     He’s two-steppin’ round the room.
     And judgin’ by the smile
            Am
     That’s written on his face,
                           D   Dadd9
     There’s nothin’ I can do.

        D
     It doesn’t take
       Cmaj
     A crystal ball to see
              C      Em
     A cowboy always finds a way
     To leave.
                            Cmaj
     Drinkin’ Jack all by myself.
   D
     He’s choosin’ Texas,
           Gsus2  G  | Gsus2  G    
     I can tell.

Bridge:
        G    Cmaj
   When I’m eastbound and down and
      D
   I can’t help but cry,
            Em7
   ’Cause I-40 gets lonelier with
   D   
   Every mile,
          Cmaj
   I’ll know that his mind wasn’t
   D
   Ever gonna change,
              Am7
   ’Cause his heart still belongs
          D         D6  D7   D
   To the Lone Star State.

Chorus:
                             Csus2
     She’s from Texas, I can tell
     By the way
                                 G   
     He’s two-steppin’ round the room.
     And judgin’ by the smile
            Am7
     That’s written on his face,
                           D
     There’s nothin’ I can do,
     Dadd9
     No, yeah.

        D
     It doesn’t take
       Cmaj
     A crystal ball to see
              C      Em
     A cowboy always finds a way
     To leave.
                            Cmaj
     Drinkin’ Jack all by myself.
   D
     He’s choosin’ Texas,
           Em     A7
     I can tell, no.
                       Cmaj
     Drinkin’ Jack all by myself.
   D
     He’s choosin’ Texas,
           G    C     G
     I can tell.
     C’mon baby.
