[Intro]
|  E7   A7|  D|
[Verse 1]
We've Dall read of the beautiful stories
Of the countries far over the A7sea
From whence came our ancestors
To establish this land of the Dfree
There are some folks who still like to travel
To D7see what they have over Gthere
But when they go look it's Dnot like the book
And they E7see there is A7none to comDpare
[Chorus]
To beautiful beautiful Texas
Where the beautiful bluebonnets A7grow
We're proud of our forefathers
Who fought at the AlaDmo
You can live on the plains or the mountains
Or D7down where the sea breezes Gblow
But you're still in beautiful DTexas
The most E7beautiful A7place that I Dknow
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
You can Dtravel on beautiful highways
By cities by village by A7farms
Or fly above on the skyways
To the beauty below you will Dcharm
White cotton green pastures blue rivers
Golden D7wheat fields and fruit trees that Gbear
You may search till doomsday and Dthen you will say
That E7Texas has A7beauty to Dspare
[Chorus]
To beautiful beautiful Texas
Where the beautiful bluebonnets A7grow
We're proud of our forefathers
Who fought at the AlaDmo
You can live on the plains or the mountains
Or D7down where the sea breezes Gblow
But you're still in beautiful DTexas
The most E7beautiful A7place that I Dknow

[Verse 1]

We've all read of the beautiful stories

Of the countries far over the sea

From whence came our ancestors

To establish this land of the free

There are some folks who still like to travel

D7 G

To see what they have over there

But when they go look it's not like the book

E7 A7 D

And they see there is none to compare

[Chorus]

To beautiful beautiful Texas

Where the beautiful bluebonnets grow

We're proud of our forefathers

Who fought at the Alamo

You can live on the plains or the mountains

D7 G

Or down where the sea breezes blow

But you're still in beautiful Texas

E7 A7 D

The most beautiful place that I know

[Verse 2]

You can travel on beautiful highways

By cities by village by farms

Or fly above on the skyways

To the beauty below you will charm

White cotton green pastures blue rivers

Golden wheat fields and fruit trees that bear

You may search till doomsday and then you will say

E7 A7 D

That Texas has beauty to spare

[Chorus]

To beautiful beautiful Texas

Where the beautiful bluebonnets grow

We're proud of our forefathers

Who fought at the Alamo

You can live on the plains or the mountains

D7 G

Or down where the sea breezes blow

But you're still in beautiful Texas

E7 A7 D

The most beautiful place that I know
