F A#
When I die I may not go to heaven
F C F
I don't know if they let cowboys in
F A#
If they don't just let me go to Texas
F C F
'Cause Texas is as close as I've been
F A#
New York couldn't hold my attention
F C F
Detroit City couldn't sing my song
F A#
If tomorrow finds me busted flat in Dallas
F C F
I won't care 'cause at least I'll know I'm home
F A#
When I die I may not go to heaven
F C F
I don't know if they let cowboys in
F A#
If they don't just let me go to Texas
F C F
'Cause Texas is as close as I've been
F A#
I'd ride through all of hell and half of Texas
F C F
Just to hear some steel guitar and a cowboy song
F A#
The beer just ain't as cold in old Milwaukee
F C F
My body's here but my soul's in San Antone
F A#
When I die I may not go to heaven
F C F
I don't know if they let cowboys in
F A#
If they don't just let me go to Texas
F C F
'Cause Texas is as close as I've been
