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

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

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

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


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

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

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

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

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

Oooo-ee, smell that mesquite my Darlin
A augmentedA    E MajorE
Oooo-ee, smell that bar-be-que

Those cotton wood trees
E MajorE
And those cicadas singin
BB
 They're all waiting just to greet you


Verse 3:

Well I've even been to Paris
  A augmentedA        E MajorE
and although it was great

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

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


Chorus:
     A augmentedA
Some say home is where the heart is

It ain't no piece of land

I say home is the heart of Texas
E MajorE        BB
Just south of Austin
      E MajorE
And I'll be drivin' that old wreck
A augmentedA          E MajorE
Doin' a hundred and eleven

Because Texas is the last stop
BB        E MajorE
Before I get to heaven
E MajorE
Texas is the last stop
BB        A augmentedA
Before I get to heaven
BB      (E MajorE)
