|E7  A7 |D  |

[Verse 1]
      D
We've all read of the beautiful stories
                              A7
Of the countries far over the sea

From whence came our ancestors
                              D
To establish this land of the free

There are some folks who still like to travel
   D7                      G
To see what they have over there
                           D
But when they go look it's not like the book
         E7           A7         D
And they see there is none to compare

[Chorus]

To beautiful beautiful Texas
                                A7
Where the beautiful bluebonnets grow

We're proud of our forefathers
                     D
Who fought at the Alamo

You can live on the plains or the mountains
   D7                         G
Or down where the sea breezes blow
                              D
But you're still in beautiful Texas
         E7        A7           D
The most beautiful place that I know

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
        D
You can travel on beautiful highways
                        A7
By cities by village by farms

Or fly above on the skyways
                             D
To the beauty below you will charm

White cotton green pastures blue rivers
       D7                                G
Golden wheat fields and fruit trees that bear
                                 D
You may search till doomsday and then you will say
     E7        A7        D
That Texas has beauty to spare

[Chorus]

To beautiful beautiful Texas
                                A7
Where the beautiful bluebonnets grow

We're proud of our forefathers
                     D
Who fought at the Alamo

You can live on the plains or the mountains
   D7                         G
Or down where the sea breezes blow
                              D
But you're still in beautiful Texas
         E7        A7           D
The most beautiful place that I know
