        I woke up this morning, with Texas on my mind
        G                                 Em7               Am
D
        Thinking about my friends there, and a girl id left behind
        G                                                         C
G
        The way she held me when we kissed, the loving that we‰ve done
        C                          G                       D
G
        And how I left her waving goodbye standing in the Texas sun

        G        C                   G
        I got a half a mind to call her
        C                   G
        Half a mind to go
        C                   G
        Jump a big jet liner
        D                                         G
        And wing it all my way back home

        G                                                   C
G
        All the morning it was raining on the streets of Liverpool
        G                           Em7                   Am
D
        So I stayed in and played guitar and sang the love sick blues
        G                                                C
G
        My mind kept going back in time when we both had fun
        C                          G                   D
G
        And how I left her waving to me standing in the Texas sun

        G        C                    G
        I got a half a mind to call her
        C                    G
        Half a mind to go
        C                   G
        Jump a big jet liner
        D                                         G
        And wing it all my way back home

        Em                         D                        C
        In my dream she‰s still in love with me
        Em                    D                       C
        But I‰d have to travel home to see
        D                                           C
G
        If she‰s found another man to take the place of me
        D                                                   C
D-C-C/Cb-D
        Guess ill have to keep on dreaming sunny memories

        G                                     C
G
        Wishing I was back there doesn‰t help much at all
        G                             Em7            Am
D
        When I want to hold her doesn‰t help me much to call
        G                                              C
G
        Stuck here in this sea port town longing for the one
        C                G                   D
G
        That I left behind me there standing in the Texas sun

        G        C                         G
        I got a half a mind to call her
        C                   G
        Half a mind to go
        C                   G
        Jump a big jet liner
        D                                         G
        And wing it all my way back home

        G        C                         G
        I got a half a mind to call her
        C                    G
        Half a mind to go
        C                   G
        Jump a big jet liner
        D                                         G
        And wing it all my way back home
