 Now I come and go as I please, 
     F7                           C 
From down here, up North and in-between. 
    F7                         C               A7 
But baby it's a shame 'cause I always feel the same,  
    D            G          C 
When I can't see Texas from here.

No matter how I try, it makes me want to die.  
   C 
So if you see me lookin' down,  
    F7 
I'm tryin' not to show this frown.  
      C            G          C 
'Cause I can?t see Texas from here.

The people here have all been good to me.  
   F7                             C              A7 
So please don?t take offense if I start to get intense,  
           D            G          C 
Just 'cause I can't see Texas from here.
