Capo on 2nd fret


Chorus

G                   D      D7
All my Ex's live in Texas
                 Am               D7  Am7 G
And Texas is the place I'd dearly love to be
                    D     D7
All my Ex's Live in Texas
           D             D7          G
And that's why I hang my hat in Tennessee


Verse `1

G                           Am
Rosanna's down in Texarkana wanted me to push her broom
D                    D7          D              G
Sweet Eileen's in Abilene she forgot I hung the moon
                           Am
And Allison's in Galveston somehow lost her sanity
    A7                                        D               D7
And Dimples who now lives in Temple's got the law looking for me


Chorus


Solo – G   D   D7   Am   G


Verse 2

G                              Am
I remember that ole Frio River where I learned to swim
       D7                     D                    D7      G
But it brings to mind another time where I wore my welcome thin
                             Am
By transcendental meditation I go there each night
      A7                         D               D7
But I always come back to myself long before daylight


Chorus (version 2)

G                   D      D7
All my Ex's live in Texas
                 Am               D7  Am7 G
And Texas is the place I'd dearly love to be
                    D     D7
All my Ex's Live in Texas
    D             D7           G
And therefore I reside in Tennessee

D7                   D      D7                     D
Some folks think I'm hiding it's been rumored that I died
D7                D            G
But I'm alive and well in Tennessee
