Verse 1: E A E Well the honky-tonks in Texas were my natural second home B Where you tip your hats to the ladies and the rose of San Antone A E I grew up on music that we called western swing B E It don't matter who's in Austin,Bob Wills is still the king Verse 2: E A E Lord i can still remember,the way things were back then B In spite of all the hard times,i'd live it all again A E To hear the Texas playboys and Tommy Duncan sing B E Makes me proud to be from Texas where Bob Wills is still the king Verse 3: A E You can hear the Grand Ol' Opry in Nashville Tennessee B It's the home of country music,on that we all agree E A E But when you cross that ol' Red River hoss that just don't mean a thing B E Cause' once you're down in Texas,Bob Wills is still the king Verse 4: A E Well if you ain't never been there then i guess you ain't been told B That you just can't live in Texas unless you got a lot of soul E A E It's the home of Willie Nelson,the home of western swing B E He'll be the first to tell you,Bob Wills is still the king Thanks to David M.
