Texas Two Step

Intro 
C 



C 
First night in Austin 
G 
Fell into a bar by chance 
      F 
Where time didn't seem to wanna exist 
        C                 G 
But was being kept by the band 
  C 
I sat next to a fella 
    G 
Who said he's too stoned to stand 
  F 
A couple more beers would help him steer 
          C                 G 
What they call the two step dance 



   C 
He said he'd been comin' for years 
    G 
And seen plenty in these walls 
         F 
But he'd never seen anyone learn to dance 
        C                  G 
Without getting out on the floor 
     F 
So I took a lesson 
       G                C                       F 
From a seasoned veteran down at the White Horse bar 
                           G 
She said this is the Texas two step 
    F             G        C 
Now let's take it from the start.

      C 
I was better off sittin' a mathematician 
         G 
Couldn't even work out these dance 
    F 
And after a couple songs went by 
        C             G 
This is what the lady said 



        F               G 
There's always time for learnin' 
        C                        F 
But you better start movin' your ass 
                  G 
This is the Texas two step 
    F               G         C 
And you're stuck at one and a half

C 
I started to feel the band's pedal steel 
      G 
For a moment there, I was dancin' 
  F 
I thought I was killin' when my partner was spinnin' 
       C                        G 
Till I threw her right into the bar 
         F                    G 
She said foot off the old gas boy 
       C                   F 
You're moving a little too fast 
F 
You were doing the two step 
G 
For a few steps 
    F               G         C 
But now you're at a two and a half 



F                       G 
There's always time for learnin' 
C                       F 
Down at the White Horse bar 
                  G 
This is the Texas two step 
F                 G 
This is the Texas two step 
F             G           C 
Let's take it back to the start
