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