TEXAS IS AS FAR AS I CAN SEE

In G Capo @ 1

Well, some folks think that Texas is just boots and belts and hat.
And Lone Star Chili’s just carbohydrates, proteins and fats
I’ll try to curb a snicker but I’m apt to disagree
TEXAS IS AS FAR AS I CAN SEE
Where the wind would blow on the buffalo
and the prairie grass was high
It was here, and not that long ago. It almost makes me cry
Those old pictures, like a movie, live in my memory
And TEXAS IS AS FAR AS I CAN SEE

Bm C G Oooooo

Follow the plow that leads to now thru loam and chalk and clay
The arrow head and the feather bed are strewn along the way
Take all the books I ever read and call it “History.”
TEXAS IS AS FAR AS I CAN SEE

They tell of far off places where boots are back in style
And cowboy bars and shirts with stars are sure to raise a smile
I’ll never know for sure if it’s reality because
TEXAS IS AS FAR AS I CAN SEE
