[Verse 1]
C C/Ab C/G C
Well late last night I was drivn' 'round in Texas
C C/C# Dm7 G
Just about as lost as I could be.

Drivin' round in circles, tryin' to find the border,

but Texas was all that I could see.

So I stopped and flagged me down a State policeman,

Said my patience is growin' mighty thin.

Can you help me get the hell out of Texas?

He just flashed me his big ole Texas grin.
[Chorus]
G/G C Ab9 G9 C
He said: You can't get the hell out of Texas,
C C/C# Dm7 G
no matter how hard you try.

In Texas we raise hell, just like it was a crop,
D7 G G G/A G/A#
It started with the Alamo and it ain't never gonna stop.

Not as long as there's Aus-tin and Houston,

Amarillo, Lubbock, Dallas, Fort Worth,
