Verse 1:
     E
Well I'll tell you folks one thing
  A        E
And hope you'd understand
                             B
I've traveled from the far side to the near side of this land
     E
And I've seen it all
         A       E
Roll out from my windshield and then

Said I'm goin' back to Texas
  B     E
As fast as I can


Chorus:
     A
Some say home is where the heart is
  E
It ain't no piece of land
   A
I say home is the heart of Texas
E        B
Just south of Austin
      E
And i'll be drivin' that old wreck
A          E
Doin' a hundred and eleven

Because Texas is the last stop
B        E
Before I get to heaven


Verse 2:
     E
Well I've been up around the Great Lakes
  A       E
And over to New England

Didn't see too many cowboy hats
                B
Didn't hear many "Thank you Ma'am's"
     E
And I've been up around the Northwest
      A         E
Where those trees are big and tall

But it always made me so sad
    B          E
Not to hear the folks say "Y'all"


Chorus:
     A
Some say home is where the heart is
  E
It ain't no piece of land
   A
I say home is the heart of Texas
E        B
Just south of Austin
      E
And i'll be drivin' that old wreck
A          E
Doin' a hundred and eleven

Because Texas is the last stop
B        E
Before I get to heaven


Solo:
E  |A E |   |B E |x2


Bridge:
A    E
Oooo-ee, smell that mesquite my Darlin
A    E
Oooo-ee, smell that bar-be-que
   A
Those cotton wood trees
E
And those cicadas singin
B
 They're all waiting just to greet you


Verse 3:
     E
Well I've even been to Paris
  A        E
and although it was great

If I'm goin back to Paris
               B
it's the one in the Lone Star State
      E
'Cause I'd only miss those honkytonks,
A         E
Friendly folks and women

Yea I'm going back to Texas
  B     E
as fast as I can


Chorus:
     A
Some say home is where the heart is
  E
It ain't no piece of land
   A
I say home is the heart of Texas
E        B
Just south of Austin
      E
And I'll be drivin' that old wreck
A          E
Doin' a hundred and eleven

Because Texas is the last stop
B        E
Before I get to heaven
E
Texas is the last stop
B        A
Before I get to heaven
B      (E)
Ahhhh-mennn!
