[Intro:  ]G 
 
G                    Em            C 
Well I woke up and I drank a fifth today 
          Em       C                     G     
I'm gonna chase my blues away and here's why 
G                        Em           C 
Sweet thing you're gonna give me everything 
                A             D 
And I got to be drunk to even try 
 
Chorus: 
C                        G            Em 
Cuz you're the prettiest woman I ever knew 
C                           D 
And If I could walk I would run 
C                 G             Em 
Lay me down in my big black Cadillac 
C    D               G 
Underneath the Texas Sun 
 
G                      Em              C 
Well I went down and I saw the judge today 
              Em           C             G    
He said all your fines are paid so let's roll 
G                          Em        C 
He said son you're just drunken and afraid 
Em                        C            G 
Bound for an early grave, Well is that so' 
 
C                              G         Em 
Well I'm just the type of man, who never knew 
G                         D 
Just when a good time was done 
 
C                 G             Em 
Lay me down in my big black Cadillac 
C    D               G 
Underneath the Texas Sun 
 
 
C                              G         Em 
Well I'm just the type of man, who never knew 
G                         D 
Just when a good time was done 
 
C                 G             Em 
Lay me down in my big black Cadillac 
C    D               G 
Underneath the Texas Sun 
 
 
C                 G             Em 
Lay me down in my big black Cadillac 
C    D               G 
Underneath the Texas Sun 
 
G                   G 
Texas Sun, Texas Sun 
 
Texas Sun
