You're Not From Texas by Traditional

Chords with lyrics

You're Not From Texas
Lyle Lovett

Lyle performed this (among other gems) on "Austin City Limits" on a
songwriters special with Willie Nelson and Rodney Crowell. I don't
know if this is even the name, or if it is on one of his records.

Notes: The first five verses use the same chord patterns. The last two
	verses uses the same chord patterns (as indicated in the next-
	to-last verse. In the chorus, the last line is simply holding
	the same chord form (Chord diagramD7D7), start at the 4th fret, and move up a
	fret at a time four frets. In the 6th verse, a similar move is
	made going from A7/6 up to B7/6.
