Okay, good song, hilarious band, my first submission. So I saw a few other
 ways this was written out, I like them, they're just fine, I just wanted to
 add in my own little change that I thought sounded a bit better and was a 
bit more comfortable to play. So here it is.
standard tuning, capo on 2nd.
(Verse I)
She said she needed a brAeak.
A little time to thDink.
Then she moved to ClevBmeland
with some guy named LeeEland
that she met at the bAank.
(repeat progression)
There's nothing wrong with Ohio
Cept the snow and the rain.
I really like Drew Carey
and I'd love to see that Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame.
(Pre-Chorus)
So when your dDone, doing whatAever,
and when your thrDough, doing whAoever,
you know Denton coF#munty will be rEight here waiting for yDou.
(Chorus)
Come back to TeDxas
It's just not the sAame since you went aEway
Before you lose your acDcent
And forget all abAout the Lone-star SEtate
There's a sF#meat for you at the roEdeo
And I've got evEery slow dance saved
Besides the MexBmican food sucks noErth of here anyDway
(Verse II [same as verse I])
I think I made a mistake
It's not that easy to take
She went to make a deposit
Then she cleaned out her closet
Guess I'll sit here and wait
For her to come back home (I'd wish you come back home)
It shouldn't take very long (so long, so long)
I bet she misses the sunrise
And misses the fruit flies, but I could be wrong
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
Come back to Texas
It's just not the same since you went away
I bet you missed your exit
And drove on through the Lone-star State
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
And I've got every slow dance saved
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway
(Bridge)
Troy AikDmen wants you bAack
Willie NeDlson wants you bAack
NDASA wants you bAack
And the BuDsh twins want you bAack
PanDtera wants you bAack
And BlDue Bell wants you bAack
I F#mgot a premonition
I'm tEaking a petition
And the wDhole state's gonna siEgn!
(chorus)
Come back to Texas
It's just not the same since you went away
Before you lose your accent
And forget all about the Lone-star State
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
And I've got every slow dance saved
(Last Chorus)
Come back to Texas
It's just not the same since you went away
Before you lose your accent
And forget all about the Lone-star State
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
And I've got every slow dance saved
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway
Besides the MeF#mxican food sucks noErth of here anyDway
Besides the MeF#mxican food sucks noErth of here anyDway.
YAeah.
Enjoy and Rock On!
