Her'e a simple version of this...it sounds best with using the 6th's & 9th's chords
but this will work for the learning guitar player.


G                     C                   G 
Lucky me, I grew up beneath that ole lone star
G                                       D
I was raised on fiddle and the steel guitar
        G                                      C                G
Well it used to be if you wanted to swing to a good ole country song
           A                                    D                                  D7
You had to find your way to Ft. Worth, Houston, Dallas, San Antone but oh how it’s grown


Chorus:
C                       G
Texas is bigger than it used to be
C                                  D 
Coast to coast, it’s alive in most every town and city
G                                  C             G
I should know, I’m on the road and lovin’ what I see
G                       D       G 
Texas is bigger than it used to be


It’s one, two, three step dancin’ in the line
Stretchin’ that denim having a good time
My daddy told me years ago, he said son there’ll come a day
When it’ll spread to Minnesota, New York City to LA, it’s happening just that way

Chorus
