standard tuning with capo on first fret
intro G , D , C , same progression throughout song
ohio was a riverbank
A 10 speed layin’ in the weeds
cannonball off an old rope swing
long , long summer days
tennessee was a guitar
first big dream of mine
if i made it , yeah , that’d be just fine
i just wanted to play , i just wanted to play , but . . .
chorus
Em – D – C G D C
texa – s was green eyes crying goodbye
Em
was a long drive
D C Em D C
a heartache i’m still trying to get through
no chord G – D – C
texas was you
carolina was a black car
a big white number three
california was a yellow jeep
cruisin’ down big sur
georgia was a summer job
and ’bama was a spring break
i got memories all over the place
but only one still hurts , only one still hurts like
chorus
texas was green eyes crying goodbye
was a long drive
a heartache i’m still trying to get through
texas was you
texas was my whole life waving goodbye
thought i’d die
a heartache i’m still trying to get through
texas was you
it will always be you
