Intro:
D D G D/F# A/E D x2


Verse 1:
      D
There's a girl down in Texas
 G        D
Holds hope in her eyes
                A
Smile so soft and warming it stays with you for miles
      Bm    A           G
She's a lifetime of happy years, she's a million memories
      D      G        A    D
There's a girl down in Texas and she's waitin' on me

Chorus:
         G      D
So give her the River Walk instead of Broadway
   A        Bm A
And Sixth Street over L.A
 G      D     A
And a salted margarita over a martini
   G      D       A         Bm A
Give me her in a poncho by a fire at night on the Frio
 G     D    A
Safe in my arms is right where she wants to be
      G       A        D
There's a girl down in Texas waitin' on me


Verse 2:
       D
Oh she's a Sunday morning stroll
    G      D
At the park by the lake
                 A
The answer to my prayers when I started to lose faith
 Bm        A      G    D
When I'm on the lonely road chasing my dreams
             G        A    D
There's a girl down in Texas and she's waitin' on me


Chorus:
         G     D
So give her the River Walk instead of Broadway
   A       Bm A
And Sixth Street over L.A
G       D         A
And a salted margarita over a martini
     G     D     A         Bm A
Give me her in a poncho by a fire at night on the Frio
G     D    A
Safe in my arms is right where she wants to be
      G       A        D
There's a girl down in Texas waitin' on me


Bridge:
     Bm     A     G       D
Takes an angel of a woman to do everything she needs
  Bm        A       G         A
To be herself and not relent and still find time for me


Chorus:
         G          D
So give her the River Walk instead of Broadway
  A        Bm A
And Sixth Street over L.A
 G      D      A
And a salted margarita over a martini
  G      D      A          Bm A
Give me her in a poncho by a fire at night on the Frio
 G     D    A
Safe in my arms is right where she wants to be
      G       A        Bm
There's a girl down in Texas waitin' on me


Outro:
       G   D   A
Oh there's a girl down in Texas
      D
And lovin' me
