Texas When I Die

A                          D
When I die I may not go to heaven
A               E                A
I don't know if they let cowboys in
                                D
If they don't just let me go to Texas, Boy!
A           E             A
Texas is as close as I've been.

Verse 1:
A                           D
New York couldn't hold my attention
A            E                A
Detroit City couldn't sing my song
                                    D
If tomorrow finds me busted flat in Dallas
        A               E                   A
I won't care, 'cause at least I'll know I'm home.

- Chorus

Verse 2:
                                         D
I'd ride through all of Hell and half of Texas
        A                  E              A
Just to hear Merle Haggard sing a country song
                               D
Beer just ain't as cold in old Milwaukee
          A            E               A
My body's here, but my soul's in San Antone.
