Intro {D}{Bm}{G}{A} 2X 
 
Would you G like to live in D Houston where the A7 cowboys come to D 
town 
or G maybe Pensa-{D}-cola where the A7 sun shines all year D round 
or G even New York Bm City where the G city never Bm sleeps 
I'm A7 offering you the option before you get in too deep 
 
     
     If you can do D anything else 
     baby be Bm good to yourself 
     you can G find a nice place, have a good life 
     don't A7 worry 'bout me I'm gonna be alright 
     you can D make a new start 
     you can Bm see yourself clear 
     if you can do G anything else 
     then D do it, but if you A7 can't 
     baby you can stay right D here
 
There's G work up in Se-{D}-attle if A7 you don't mind the D rain 
San Di-{G}-ego to Sa-{D}-vannah they'd A7 all be glad you came 
but G life with me would Bm always be a G roller coaster Bm ride 
A7 you won't hurt my feelings whatever you decide 
 
Repeat Chorus 
 
A7 This place might look real good right now 
but G lookin' good won't Bm last 
but A7 if you choose it anyhow 
I'd G give you all I A7 have 
 
Repeat Chorus
