[Verse 1]
C
Well I'll bet by the time I get to Tulsa
F
She'll be pulling on them tight blue jeans
F                           C
She'll go down to Cowboy's, buy herself a cold one
G
And on a Friday night in Dallas, she's a cowboy's dream
C
Something tells me she'll sit out the first one
F
Then they'll play George Strait and she'll be gone
                                            C
Cause heaven knows that girl was born to two-step
C                G                C
And Texas women don't stay lonely long


[Chorus]
C                F              G          G
It's a fact that women like the one I left
         F              G
Can find somebody else, any time they want
C                 F               G
It's a shame, but I'm afraid the one I love
               F
She don't like waiting much
G                             C
Texas women don't stay lonely long

[Verse 2]
C
I'd sure like to think she'd wait forever
F
Welcome me back in with open arms
F                             C
But she don't walk the floor, she don't count the teardrops
G
And she don't pick up pieces from no broken heart
C
I wish I could call and say I'm sorry
F
But there's nobody sitting by the phone
F                                              C
You know she meant it when she told me that she loved me
C               G                  C
But Texas women don't stay lonely long


[Chorus]
C                F              G          G
It's a fact that women like the one I left
         F              G
Can find somebody else, any time they want
C                 F               G
It's a shame, but I'm afraid the one I love
               F
She don't like waiting much
G                             C
Texas women don't stay lonely long


[Chorus]
C                F              G          G
It's a fact that women like the one I left
         F              G
Can find somebody else, any time they want
C                 F               G
It's a shame, but I'm afraid the one I love
               F
She don't like waiting much
G                             C
Texas women don't stay lonely long
