Take Me to Texas – George Strait
Em D
Take me to Texas, two hundred years ago
Em D
Where a pride rose from the ashes of San Jacinto
Em D
It still beats in every heart, like a battle cry
Em C
Where I was born, where I was raised, so when I die
[CHORUS]
G D
Take me to Texas, on the open range; the Rio Grande is in my veins
Em
Its heaven there, and so my prayer
C G
Is that you’ll take me anywhere in Texas
D D#dim7 Em
The only home I know. I’m a child of the Alamo, and the Yellow Rose
C
So when I go
Em D
Take me to Texas, where my daddy worked
Em D
Where his blood and sweat and tears are still in that red dirt
Em D
Wild Palo-minos run. Cow-boys are kings
Em C
And if I stray too far, I’ll let my Lone Star dreams
[CHORUS]
G D
Take me to Texas, on the open range; the Rio Grande is in my veins
Em
Its heaven there, and so my prayer
C G
Is that you’ll take me anywhere in Texas
D D#dim7 Em
The only home I know. I’m a child of the Alamo, and the Yellow Rose
C G D Em C
So when I go, take me to Texas
[BRIDGE]
C G
There’s something in the sky, and in your momma’s eyes
Am G
So even if you try to move away.
C G
You’ll end up on some road somewhere, with your thumb up in the air
Am D
When they ask you where you’re headed, you’ll just say
G
Take me to Dallas, Fort Worth and San Antone
D Em
Houston, Laredo, Galveston or Austin, maybe Abilene
C G
The closest thing I’ve ever seen to Heaven’s the Gulf of Mexico
D D#dim7 Em
I’m a child of the Alamo, and the Yellow Rose
C G D
So when I go, take me to Texas, mmmhmmm
Em C G D D#dim7 Em C
Take me to Texas. Oh, take me to Texas. Take me to Texas
