Intro:C2|Am|F2|G7sus|G7
I walked into that sleepy Texas town
After my truck broke down
On a hot August afternoon
Stepped into the local diner
Let my eyes embrace the climate
And I heard her sweet voice say
My name is Texas Rose
Can I get you something cold
To help wash this heat and dust away
I know it's quite the name
It was grandma's maiden name
Back in those good old days
When this was open range
And the cowboys praised
The Texas Rose

I walked to the counter and sat down
Kinda smiled as she turned around
And passed me a lemonaid
She stepped from behind the counter
Let my eyes gaze upon her
And I heard her sweet voice say
My name is Texas Rose
And I need someone I can hold
to help keep the loneliness away
I know it's quite the shame
It's not how I was raised
Back in those good old days
When this was open range
And the cowboys praised
The Texas Rose
I hear my grandma as she'd say
Sometime to find what you want
You've gotta go out of your way
My name is Texas Rose
And I need someone I can hold
to help keep the loneliness away
I know it's quite the shame
It's not how I was raised
Back in those good old days
When this was open range
And the cowboys praised
The Texas Rose
