Intro: 
  G# Bbm Fm7
  Bbm7 | Bbm7 |
  G# G# G# G#sus2 |
  G#sus2 G# Bbm Fm7 |

  Bbm7 | C# |
  G# G# G# G#sus2 | G#

              Bbm
Just when I thought I got him to
                        G#
Fall in love with Tennessee.
                Bbm
I shoulda known better than to
                    G#    G#maj
Take him back to Abilene.
           C#maj                      
I put him right back into her arms;
            Eb             Ebsus4 Eb
I wasn’t a match for that kinda spark.

Chorus:
                             C#maj
     She’s from Texas, I can tell
                  
     By the way
                       C#        G#
     He’s two-steppin’ round the room.
     And judgin’ by the smile
            Bbm
     That’s written on his face,
                           Eb  Ebadd9
     There’s nothin’ I can do.

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

Instrumental: 
  G# Bbm Fm7
  Bbm7 | Bbm7
  G# G# G# G#sus2 | G#sus2 G#

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

Chorus:
                             C#maj
     She’s from Texas, I can tell
                  
     By the way
                       C#        G#
     He’s two-steppin’ round the room.
     And judgin’ by the smile
            Bbm
     That’s written on his face,
                           Eb  Ebadd9
     There’s nothin’ I can do.

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

Bridge:
        G#   C#maj
   When I’m eastbound and down and
      Eb
   I can’t help but cry,
            Fm7
   ’Cause I-40 gets lonelier with
   Eb  
   Every mile,
          C#maj
   I’ll know that his mind wasn’t
   Eb
   Ever gonna change,
              Bbm7
   ’Cause his heart still belongs
          Eb        Eb6 Eb7  Eb
   To the Lone Star State.

Chorus:
                             C#sus2
     She’s from Texas, I can tell
     By the way
                                 G#  
     He’s two-steppin’ round the room.
     And judgin’ by the smile
            Bbm7
     That’s written on his face,
                           Eb
     There’s nothin’ I can do,
     Ebadd9
     No, yeah.

        Eb
     It doesn’t take
       C#maj
     A crystal ball to see
              C#     Fm
     A cowboy always finds a way
     To leave.
                            C#maj
     Drinkin’ Jack all by myself.
   Eb
     He’s choosin’ Texas,
           Fm     Bb7
     I can tell, no.
                       C#maj
     Drinkin’ Jack all by myself.
   Eb
     He’s choosin’ Texas,
           G#   C#    G#
     I can tell.
     C’mon baby.
