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
