Horse Named Texas

Intro: D 



[Verso 1]
 
D                    Bm 
Saddled up my dreams on a horse named Texas 
          G                                     D 
Hit those honky-toking trails like those outlaw boys 
                             Bm 
I've been roping cowboy songs on a horse named Texas 
           G                         A           D 
Tied a few good ones down and made a lot of neon noise 
 


[Refrão]
 
           G                              A 
From those Cheyenne Frontier Days to that Grand Ole Opry stage 
       D                                  Bm7 
I rode right smack down the middle of the street on Music Row 
     A            G 
I've never traded in my boots and jeans 
                   A 
Still playing that dance hall down in Gruene 
      D                   A/C#                 Bm7             A 
Never sold-out, but every now and then, I sold out a couple of shows 
                   G 
Still playing that country gold 
                 A                           D 
Still got a long ways to go on a horse named Texas 
 


[Verso 2]
 
D                                      Bm7 
Came up short, been bucked off, had my heart stomped in the dirt 
               G                               D 
But I got back up, got back on, time and time again 
                                           Bm7 
After all these years, I've learned that a winner's just a loser 
             G               A                D 
Who keeps on losing 'til the day they finally win

           G                              A 
From those Cheyenne Frontier Days to that Grand Ole Opry stage 
       D                                  Bm7 
I rode right smack down the middle of the street on Music Row 
     A            G 
I've never traded in my boots and jeans 
                   A 
Still playing that dance hall down in Gruene 
      D                   A/C#                 Bm7             A 
Never sold-out, but every now and then, I sold out a couple of shows 
                   G 
Still playing that country gold 
                 A                           G 
Still got a long ways to go on a horse named Texas

[Ponte]
 
         Em                                    D/F# 
And if I choke or wind up broke, God knows I'd do it all again 
               G                                        A 
If I write one song that saves a life, wouldn't that be worth it in the end?

Never sold-out, but every now and then, I sold out a couple of shows 
           G                                  A 
From those New York City lights to those gold-buckle Vegas nights 
      G                             A 
Troubadour out in LA to the Houston Rodeo 
                 D 
On a horse named Texas
