   C
I know the stars are bright
            E7
Above that little Texas town
Am                     
I bet I'm nowhere near 
          G     C
her mind right now
       F               F#dim
Oh but I can't say the same
           C              Am
It's been thundering and rain
        D
I'm so full of all this liquor
                          G
And I'm drowning in this pain
 
I'm wondering
 
 
 C            
Why, Dallas, did 
    E7
you take her from me?
 Am                  
Everything was fine out 
        Gm          C
here in Nashville, Tennessee
              F          F#dim
We went from chasing Amarillo
         C           A7
Now I'm chasing memories
                
I'm wondering, 
 D7          G            C
"Why did you take her from me?"
 
Lord

   C
If I could see the ocean
         E
I would pour it on my head
 Am
Float around this desert
        Gm             C
Like a possum playing dead
 F          
Maybe I could 
 F#dim             C
drift back to her heart
             A7
And find the bed
 D7
Maybe she'll forget last night
     D            G
And everything I said
 
I'm wondering
 
 
 C           
Why, Dallas, did you 
 E
take her from me?
 Am                
Everything was fine out 
      Gm           C
on a beach here in Maui
              F          F#dim
We went from chasing Amarillo
         C           A7
Now I'm chasing memories
                D7           G       
I'm wondering, "Why did you take her  
     C
from me?"

       C          
Ohhh, why, Dallas, 
         E7
did you take her from me?
 Am                            
Everything was perfect out here 
    Gm               C
in Nashville, Tennessee
              F          F#dim
We went from chasing Amarillo
         C           A7
Now I'm chasing memories
 
               
I'm wondering, 
 D7          G
"Why did you take her?
         D7                 G
Roll my heart right up and break it?
 
      D7           G      
Yeah, why did you take her 
    C    C  C
from me?
