[Intro]
E A E A
[Verse 1]
E
It’s a single star waiving, so proud and tall
C#m
It’s the smell of gunpowder on the Alamo walls
B
A red corpus sunset, hill country bluebonnets
A
Brisket at coopers, Joe T’s enchiladas
E
It’s floatin’ the frio, cold beer in hand
C#m
It’s a couple two-stepping to a twin fiddle band
B
It’s a saturday rodeo, friday night lights
A A/G# A/F# B
The prettiest girl you’ve ever seen in you life
[Chorus]
A
For those who the mud of the Brazos and
E B
Red rivers run through our blood
C#m A
Let the world know, we’ll fight to the death
E B
For the land and the people we love
C#m A
Gather round friends, it’s time for a toast
E A
Let us raise up a cold one together
E A
To Texas forever
[Verse 2]
E
From the pines to the mountains, the coast to the plains
C#m
There's a pride down inside us, It’s hard to explain
B
But if ever you earn one then always you’ll be
A
You may wonder this world but your heart never leaves
E
All these cowboys still saddle their horses to ride
C#m
Out here there’s just somethings that won’t ever die
B
Like a ghost in the alley of some six street bar
A A/G# A/F# B
You can still hear the ringin’ from Stevies guitar
[Chorus]
A
For those who the mud of the Brazos and
E B
Red rivers run through our blood
C#m A
Let the world know, we’ll fight to the death
E B
For the land and the people we love
C#m A
Gather round friends, it’s time for a toast
E A
Let us raise up a cold one together
E A
To Texas forever
[Instrumental]
E A E A B
[Outro]
C#m A
Gather round friends, it’s time for a toast
E A
Let us raise up a cold one together
E A
To Texas forever
E A
Texas forever
