G
Ever since I was only two
G D
There's only been one thing I ever really wanted to do
G C
Well put a guitar in my hand, hard work I understand
G D G
I wanna grow up and play in a Texas band
Right from the start I knew you couldn't see
What country music could do to a man like me
Yeah, blues and rock and roll they're buried down deep in my soul
I had to grow up and play in a Texas band
D C G
Well I work all day but I play at night
G E7 A
How can this be wrong when it feels so right
C D G G/F# Em
Well put a guitar in my hand Oh now baby please understand
C D G
Tonight I'm playin' in a Texas band
Baby you know I think you're out of sight
And I'd love it if you'd just come out tonight
Well out a cold one in your hand and come watch your singin' man
Tonight I'm playin' in a Texas band
Instrumental
Well it's 2:00 in the morning it's time to go home
but I can't drive at all I'm too damned stoned
Yeah a bar that'll call me a cab, my tips pay off my tab
Look at me I'm playin' in a Texas band
Chorus
Tonight I'm playin' in a Texas band
