Intro: G

Verse 1:

G
Dallas packed her suitcase
    C                                G
And drove off in the brand new car I bought her
         G
She made leaving me look easy
  C                                G
I wish she'd made it look a little harder
  D               
I took her out of Texas
     C
When she was just a girl
        D
But old Tennessee and me
              C            D
Couldn't take Texas out of her

Chorus:

   G          C              D
On how I wish Dallas was in Tennessee
                C
If I could move Texas east
     D                  
Then she'd be here with me
     G                  C                 D
Then nothin' else would come between the two of us
   C         D          G
If Dallas was in Tennessee

Verse 2:

   G                
By now she's leaving Memphis
   C                    G     
And everything we had behind her
       G                         C  
Lord I hope the gold band on her hand
                     G
Will serve as a reminder
     D
That true love is a treasure
       C     
That's very seldom found
    D                          C                 D
But you can't stay together if there's no common ground

Chorus:

   G          C              D
On how I wish Dallas was in Tennessee
                C
If I could move Texas east
     D                  
Then she'd be here with me
     G                  C                 D
Then nothin' else would come between the two of us
   C         D         G
If Dallas was in Tennessee
      C         D         G
Oh if Dallas was in Tennessee
G
Dallas packed her suitcase
    C   N/C                                      G
And drove off in the brand new car I bought her
