[Chorus]
F C A# F
If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band

That lead guitar is hot but not for "Louisiana Man"
Dm C A# F
So rosin up that bow for "Faded Love" and let's all dance

If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band

He said, "We love what you're doin', boys don't get us wrong
F C F
There's just somethin' missin' in your songs"
[Chorus]
F C A# F
If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band

So we dusted off our boots and put our cowboy hats on straight
F C A# C
Them Texans raised the roof when Jeff opened up his case

F C F
Well, here's your fiddlin' song before we go
