D                           G   G/F#
One lone star waving in the wind
  Em                              A
A longhorn standing proud behind a rusty barbed wire fence
D                                G    G/F#
Cowboy hats and hearts that never bend
      Em                         A
I was born and raised a Texan and will be 'til the end


Chorus:
     G               A          D
As I travel down that bluebonnet highway
    Bm            Em          A
I'm thankful I was born a lucky man
      D               Bm             G        G  G/F#
And I know that I will live and die my own way
    Em               A           D
Somewhere between the Red and Rio Grande


Solo/Intro


Two old boots, dusty, worn, and stained
By the oilfields and the ranches and the blood that fell like rain
Heroes hearts that fought to change our name
From Tejas to Texas where the Lone Star proudly waves

Chorus
