A D
When I die I may not go to heaven
A E A
I don't know if they let cowboys in
D
If they don't just let me go to Texas
A E A
'Cause Texas is as close as I've been
D
New York couldn't hold my attention
A E A
Detroit City couldn't sing my song
D
If tomorrow finds me busted flat in Dallas
A E A
I won't care 'cause at least I'll know I'm home
A D
When I die I may not go to heaven
A E A
I don't know if they let cowboys in
D
If they don't just let me go to Texas
A E A
'Cause Texas is as close as I've been
D
I'd ride through all of Hell and half of Texas
A E A
Just to hear Merle Haggard sing a country song
D
Beer just ain't as cold in old Milwaukee
A E A
My body's here but my soul's in San Antone
A D
When I die I may not go to heaven
A E A
I don't know if they let cowboys in
D
If they don't just let me go to Texas
A E A
'Cause Texas is as close as I've been

key step up
Half
key step up
Half

Full
