[Intro]
D A E A
A
I love to hear them old twin fiddles
E
They can do more damage than a gun
Have you ever seen a cowboy on the dance floor
A
I'm convinced that's how the west was won
A
Were you there at the Trippin' Springs reunion
E
For me, that's how it all began
It was me and Hank and Ernest Tubb and Willie
A
There to win the battle of the bands
[Chorus]
F#m G
I may sing my songs the whole world over
D A
I may live in Tennessee
E
You can take the music out of Texas
A
But you'll never take Texas out of me
F#m G D A E A
A
Now I can buy my boots in New York City
E
Get my big black hats in New Orleans
And even draw a crowd in London England
A
And they all come in decked out in boots and jeans
[Chorus]
F#m G D A
E
You can take the music out of Texas
A D-A
But you'll never take Texas out of me
