Verse 1
C G He was just eighteen C G Full of fire and gasoline C G He was lean and mean D And they called him Texas
Verse 2
C G He went off to war C G To a far and distant shore C G He'd never left his home before D He was from Texas
Pre-chorus
Am D As they stormed that beach one foggy summer day Am D He said if I don't make it back promise me one thing
Chorus
C G Take me home if I die D Em When I'm gone don't ya cry C G D Find some shade right beside a live oak tree C G Sing those old songs of faith Am Em I'll fly away amazing grace C G D But you find comfort knowing that my soul found peace C D G And you can bury me beneath the deep blue skies of Texas
Verse 3
C G Well she was just eighteen C G Prettiest thing he'd ever seen C G Like a real life beauty queen D And someday she'd be his wife
Verse 4
C G But for the next four years C G She fought back her tears C G While he fought back his fears D Fighting for his life
Pre-chorus
Am And in his darkest hours D Her love would bring him a light Am He would read her letters D He would pray at night
Chorus
C G Take me home if I die D Em When I'm gone don't ya cry C G D Find some shade right beside a live oak tree C G Sing those old songs of faith Am Em I'll fly away amazing grace C G D But you find comfort knowing that my soul found peace C D G And you can bury me beneath the deep blue skies of Texas
Bridge
Am Em He always said the real heroes G D Never made it back home Am Em And though the war was long over G D You know for him it still lived on D And it still lives on
Verse 5
C G When he was eighty-three C G Still full of fire and gasoline C G He was still lean and mean D And they still called him Texas
Verse 6
C G And on the day he died C G She was right there by his side C G D She held his hand as she softly sang his lullaby
Chorus
C G Take me home if I die D Em When I'm gone don't ya cry C G D Find some shade right beside a live oak tree C G Sing those old songs of faith Am Em I'll fly away amazing grace C G D But you find comfort knowing that my soul found peace C D And you can bury me C D You can bury me C D G You can bury me beneath the deep blue skies of Texas
