Drop D Tuning

D                                     G                               D
There's a Walmart Super Center in the field where I use to bale my daddy's hay
D                            G  	            D
Where we use to ride our horses now sits a brand new cafe
G    	  	  	  	  	                Bm   A
The old house where my granddad was born was torn down in 1973
G  	  	  	  	  	  A  	  	  	  	  D
They're makin off with everything that's left, so whats left of Texas for me

Chorus:
G  	  	  	  	  	  	  	  	  	       D
They're taking God's name out of the schools and Robert Earl Keen right off the radio
A	  	  	  	                                                    D
They're taking John Wayne out of Hollywood, replaced him with some broke back picture show
G  	  	  	  	  	  	  	  	                      	 
And ol' Waylon would sure be mad as hell if he knew they cuffed ol' Willy for smokin' 
D       Bm
weed
G  	  	  	  	  	     A  	  	  	     D
Ah they're makin off with everything that's left, so what's left of Texas for me

D                                     G  	  	  	            D
Well there use to be some honkey tonk right down there beside that old town square
D                                   G  	  	  	          D
That's where I had my first dance as I ran my fingers through her auburn hair
G    	  	  	  	  	  	  	  	    Bm  A
It was torn down to build a dealership some foreign car nobody'd ever seen
G  	  	  	  	  	       A  	  	              D
Yeah they're makin off with everything that's left, so whats left of Texas for me

Chorus

Ending: 
G  	  	  	  	  	  	  	  	  	  D
They're taking God's name out of the schools and Gary P Nunn right off the radio
A	  	  	  	                                                     D
They're taking John Wayne out of Hollywood, replaced him with some broke back picture show
G  	  	  	  	  	  	  	  	                      	 
And ol' Waylon would sure be mad as hell if he knew they cuffed ol' Willy for smokin' 
D       Bm
weed
G  	  	  	  	  	   A  	  	            D       Bm
Ah they're makin off with everything that's left, so whats left of Texas for me
G  	  	  	  	  	     A  	  	              D
Yeah they're makin off with everything that's left, so whats left of Texas for me

Awesome song. I know Cody and his lead guitarist/tour manager is like a brother, this song(in which he wrote with another good friend) just straight tells it like it is! Want talent and true original country? Here it is.
