[Verse 1]
 
D                                       A
I’ve got some fond memories of San Ange-lo
                                          D
And I’ve seen some beauty queens in El Pa-so
                                          G
But the best lookin’ women that I’ve ever seen
                 D          A           D
Have all been in Texas, and all wearin’ jeans
 
 
[Chorus]
 
      G       D             A     D
I’m a country plowboy not a urban cowboy
      G          D            E                A
And I don’t ride bulls, but I have fought some men.
        G      D              A       D
Drive a pickup truck trust in God and luck
      G       D          C    A    D
And I live to love Texas wih--hih--men

[Verse 2]
 
D                                     A
I thought I’d seen beauty in far away places
                                 D
‘Til I looked upon those Houston faces
                                     G
Spent Hollywood nights up in Beverly Hills
                         D              A              D
But they weren’t nothin’ like one night down in Browns-ville
 
 
[Chorus]
 
      G       D             A     D
I’m a country plowboy not a urban cowboy
      G          D            E                A
And I don’t ride bulls, but I have fought some men.
        G      D              A       D
Drive a pickup truck trust in God and luck
      G       D          C    A    D
And I live to love Texas wih--hih--men

[Verse 3]
(in key of E)
 
E                                       B
I’m a pretty fair judge of the opposite sex
                                             E
And I ain’t seen nothin’ that will touch ‘em yet
                                    A
They may be from Waco or out in Lam-pasas
                E           B             E
But one thing about it they all come from Texas
 
 
[Chorus]
 
      A       E             B     E
I’m a country plowboy not a urban cowboy
      A          E            F#                B
And I don’t ride bulls, but I have fought some men.
        A      E              B       E
Drive a pickup truck trust in God and luck
      A       E          D    B    E
And I live to love Texas wih--hih--men
 
 
[Outro]
 
       A      E         B      E
I’m an Oilier fan not a soccer man
       A        E       F#       B
And my arms are red and so is my blood
    A            E              B          E
And they make it boil with that soft Texas drawl
    A          E         D    B    E
And I love ‘em all Texas wih--hih--men

Can you explain how Dadd12 is meant to be played?

While playing the D chord place your pinky only on 6th string 5th fret for a 1/6 note. So if you downstrum the D in 1/6 time, it would look like this....D D D Dadd12 D DD D D Dadd12, rest restD D D Dadd12 D DD D D Dadd12, rest rest(repeat)

While playing the D chord place your pinky only on 6th string 5th fret for a 1/4 note. So if you downstrum the D in 1/6 time, it would look like this.... D, D, D, Dadd12, D, D. D, D, D, Dadd12, beat, beat. D, D, D, Dadd12, D, D. D, D, D, Dadd12, beat, beat. (repeat)
