B F C F
There wouldn’t be no Alamo,
B F C F
No Cowboys in the Super Bowl
B C D7
No Lonesome Dove, no Yellow Rose
F
If it wasn’t for Texas
B F C F
I wouldn’t be a Willie fan,
B F C F
No body swam the Rio Grand
B C D7
I wouldn’t be an American,
F
If it wasn’t for Texas
Chorus
C B F
Ft. Worth would never cross my mind,
C B F
There’d be no Austin City Limits sign
B F C
No lone star of any kind,
F
If it wasn’t for Texas
B F C F
I’d never gone to Tennessee,
B F C F
To sing my songs and chase my dreams
B F C D7
Only heaven knows just where I’d be,
F
If it wasn’t for Texas
Repeat Chorus
B F C F
It made me the man I am,
B F C F
Thank God for my ole’ stomping ground
B C D7
Wouldn’t be standing right here, right now
F
If it wasn’t for Texas,
D7
If it wasn’t for Texas,
B
If it wasn’t for Texas
