R: When I die I may not go to heaven
G D G
I don't know if they let cowboys in

If they don't just let me go to Texas, Boy!

1. New York couldn't hold my attention
G D G
Detroit City couldn't sing my song
C
If tomorrow finds me busted flat in Dallas

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