Miles and Miles of Texas
by Bob Wills
 
G                       C               G  
I was born in Louisiana down on the old bayou
C                    G           A7           D7  
Raised on shrimp and catfish and Mammy's good gumbo
  G                           C                  G   
I got the ramblin' fever said goodbye to maw and paw
C                    G     E7   A7      D7     G   
Crossed that old Red River  and this is what I saw
 
                                                       D7   
I saw miles and miles of Texas all the stars up in the sky
      G                                        D7     G  
I saw miles and miles of Texas gonna live here 'til I die
 
                           C             G    
I rode up in to Austin the cradle of the West
C            G            A7                    D7    
Just ask any cowboy he'll tell you that its the best
      G                        C                 G   
And I met a Texas beauty I got friendly with her Paw
  C               G        E7       A7      D7     G   
I looked into her big blue eyes and this is what I saw
 
                                                       D7   
I saw miles and miles of Texas all the stars up in the sky
      G                                        D7     G  
I saw miles and miles of Texas gonna live here 'til I die
 
                         C          G 
I started tamin' broncos made every rodeo
  C           G                      A7             D7   
Until I met a tough one you know his name was Devil Joe
      G                                  C                G   
And I grabbed hold of his bridle just to ride this old outlaw
   C                 G      E7  A7      D7     G   
He threw me from the saddle and this is what I saw
 
                                                       D7   
I saw miles and miles of Texas all the stars up in the sky
      G                                        D7     G  
I saw miles and miles of Texas gonna live here 'til I die
