Well, I (G7)been packed up some two weeks ago, my truck's gassed up and ready to roll
I just (C7)might get a ticket or two, but that's al-(G7)right
'Cause I'm (F)going to Texas to (C)see my baby tonight (F)(C)(G7)|(G7)
Just (G7)thinkin' 'bout her sends chills up my spine like a feelin' I get when I cross the state line
(C7) Her pickup truck will be next to (G7)mine
'Cause I'm (F)going to Texas to (C)see my baby tonight (F)(C)(G7)|(G7)
(Chorus)
(C7) Colorado's quite a sight, but I'd (G7)rather see her in those rugged mountain jeans
(C7) Gettin' cold at night, she can (D)keep me warm, if you know what I mean
(C7) Lone Star shinin' bright, but it (G7)shines a little brighter when she's with me
So I'm (F)going to Texas to (C)see my baby tonight (F)(C)(G7)|(G7) |(F)(C)(G7)|(G7) |(G7) |(G7)
Live a (G7)long life livin' out on the road, when the only friend of yours' is the radio
But even (C7)he faded it out every now and (G7)then
Girl, I (F)made a mistake I (C)ain't goin to make again (F)(C)(G7)|(G7)
Well the (G7)closer I get seems the faster I go, the only thing between us now is New Mexico
It's (C7)just a matter of time before I hold her (G7)tight
'Cause I'm (F)going to Texas to (C)see my baby tonight (F)(C)(G7)|(G7)
(Chorus)
(C7) Colorado's quite a sight, but I'd (G7)rather see her in those rugged mountain jeans
(C7) Gettin' cold at night, she can (D)keep me warm, if you know what I mean
(C7) Lone Star shinin' bright, but it (G7)shines a little brighter when she's with me
So I'm (F)going to Texas to (C)see my baby tonight (F)(C)(G7)|(G7) |(F)(C)(G7)|(G7) |(G7) |(G7) ---
