Tonart: A major
Verse 1
E
A
is about as pretty as it gets
But Texas in the springtime,
F#m
E
is even prettier yet
D

You miss it so much when you're gone
A

It's hard for you to say

Texas gets more beautiful,

with every passing day

Got a letter from my family,
D
E
A
D
E
said they'd had a lot of rain
A
It washed away the cotton crops,
F#m
E
but all and all they can't complain
D
'Cause the bluebonnets are
A
D
And Ginger finally had her colt
A
In Texas they don't worry much,
E
about things they can't control
A
Verse 3
Chorus:
E
A
C#m
keep Texas free
F#m
Keep her wild and natural,

just the way she ought to be
D

This world is full of man- made wonders,
A

Texas didn't come that way

No, Texas came out beautiful,
E
why not keep her that way?

D
E
A
I've been out here working hard,
D
E
A
D
E
trying to make ends meet
A
But a float trip down the Rio Grande
F#m

would sure do a lot for me
C#m
D
A good night's sleep
A
D
With a sunrise crisp and clean
A
And the smell of coffee boiling,
E
by a big old pot of beans

I can see my daddy's face
A
He's standing by the live oak tree,
F#m

in our yard on Canyon Lake
D

And I'm driving under miles and miles
A

of clear blue Texas skies
A
Some strangers in a pick- up truck,
E
A
turn and wave as I drive by
