C                                               F               C
She's the first one on the dance floor when the music starts to play,
                                           G
She's the first to buy the band a round of drinks.
           C                              F              C
She's just out to have a good time dances every set they play,
    F                   C  G    C
And she don't care what anybody thinks.

Chorus:
                       F                C
She's a sad and lonely Texes dance hall girl,
                                               G
Who's just trying to bring a smile to this old world.
    C                               F                C
But behind the smile a broken heart lives in another world,
        F              C     G          C
She's a sad and lonely Texas dance hall girl.

C                                            F               C
No one really knows the story, but theres an old love on her mind.
                                             G
Cause a certain song brings teardrops to her eyes.
          C                              F                 C
But there only there a minute then she's laughing one more time,
          F           C      G        C
With what little happiness a teardrop buy's. 

Sing Chorus

             F              C     G          C
She's just a sad and lonely Texas dance hall girl.
