Biography:
As one of Texas’s hottest young touring acts, Aaron Watson has earned his musical stripes the hard way; on the road, traveling thousands of miles to hundreds of honky-tonks across the Southwest and beyond. And for this rising star, the payoff could not have been sweeter than one magical night this past February when he stepped on stage at the legendary Texas Hall of Fame in Bryan, TX, where so many heavyweights had stood before him, to record his latest release.

[Intro]
C G C G C G D
[Verse 1]
C G
He was just eighteen
C G
Full of fire and gasoline
C G
He was lean and mean
D
And they called him Texas
[Verse 2]
C G
He went off to war
C G
To a far and distant shore
C G
He'd never left his home before
D
He was from Texas
[Pre-chorus]
Am D
As they stormed that beach one foggy summer day
Am D
He said if I don't make it back promise me one thing
[Chorus]
C G
Take me home if I die
D Em
When I'm gone don't ya cry
C G D
Find some shade right beside a live oak tree
C G
Sing those old songs of faith
Am Em
I'll fly away amazing grace
C G D
But you find comfort knowing that my soul found peace
C D G
And you can bury me beneath the deep blue skies of Texas
[Verse 3]
C G
Well she was just eighteen
C G
Prettiest thing he'd ever seen
C G
Like a real life beauty queen
D
And someday she'd be his wife
[Verse 4]
C G
But for the next four years
C G
She fought back her tears
C G
While he fought back his fears
D
Fighting for his life
[Pre-chorus]
Am
And in his darkest hours
D
Her love would bring him a light
Am
He would read her letters
D
He would pray at night
[Chorus]
C G
Take me home if I die
D Em
When I'm gone don't ya cry
C G D
Find some shade right beside a live oak tree
C G
Sing those old songs of faith
Am Em
I'll fly away amazing grace
C G D
But you find comfort knowing that my soul found peace
C D G
And you can bury me beneath the deep blue skies of Texas
[Bridge]
Am Em
He always said the real heroes
G D
Never made it back home
Am Em
And though the war was long over
G D
You know for him it still lived on
D
And it still lives on
[Verse 5]
C G
When he was eighty-three
C G
Still full of fire and gasoline
C G
He was still lean and mean
D
And they still called him Texas
[Verse 6]
C G
And on the day he died
C G
She was right there by his side
C G D
She held his hand as she softly sang his lullaby
[Chorus]
C G
Take me home if I die
D Em
When I'm gone don't ya cry
C G D
Find some shade right beside a live oak tree
C G
Sing those old songs of faith
Am Em
I'll fly away amazing grace
C G D
But you find comfort knowing that my soul found peace
C D
And you can bury me
C D
You can bury me
C D G
You can bury me beneath the deep blue skies of Texas
