GIf they'll play another love song
GAnd if that Miller D7Highlife light stays Gdim
CAnd if you'll keep my glass full of Gwhiskey
I'll D7whisper words I wish I'd said to Ghim
GJust ask me to dance all the slow ones
GHold me close and D7take me 'cross the Gfloor
CI'll gently lay my head on your Gshoulder
And D7pretend this never happened Gbefore
CI don't want to hear a sad Gstory
We Cboth already D7know how it Ggoes
So Cif you'll be my tall dark Gstranger
D7I'll be your San Antone GRose
GI wish I could tell you I love you
GI wish that he D7weren't always on my Gmind
CIf wishes were fast trains to GTexas
I'd D7ride and I'd ride how I'd Gride
CI don't want to hear a sad Gstory
We Cboth already D7know how it Ggoes
So Cif you'll be my tall dark Gstranger
