[Verse 1]
G              C
Time flies and love does too
Em                 D                      G
Now how'd I ever believe that dreams come true
                 C
With a girl like that?
         Em              D
I got it bad and she got gone
       G                  C
Now my guess is Texas and Oklahoma boys
Em                D                G
  Don't mean much more to her than toys
             C                 Em
And then she played me way too long


[Pre-chorus]
D           C
  So, I ran south cross that red river
           Em
A thousand miles might help forget her
         Am           G
I need a remedy for a memory
          C              D
I need to get back on my feet


[Chorus]
         G          C        Em                    D
I've got pockets of pesos, a $20 dollar bill in my bill fold
G                       C               Em
  Tell me what, tell me what's it gunna take?
D              G          C              Em                           D
  And I've got cigars and Lonestar’s and 2 tequila shots in every bar-ar
    G             C                  Em
But I can't, no I can't seem to get away.
D         Am              D
  Leaving her in Oklahoma didn't help ease the pain
             F     C         G
I guess I'm a long way from OK

[Verse 2]
G           C
I know that feelings change
Em                     D                 G
  But when it comes to her she takes the cake
            C                    Em              D
And eats it too, there's someone new every other day
         G                    C             Em
Yeah her green eyes disguise alotta things, hook
          D               G
line, and sucker they got me


[Pre-chorus]
               C            Em                D
And they still do, I wish I knew how to swim away
            C
I'm runnin' low on my defenses
           Em
I'm hidin' out down here in Texas
             Am
I don't know where I'll go
      G          C                 D
Maybe Mexico, as long as there's a road


[Chorus]
         G          C        Em                    D
I've got pockets of pesos, a $20 dollar bill in my bill fold
G                       C               Em
  Tell me what, tell me what's it gunna take?
D              G          C              Em                           D
  And I've got cigars and Lonestar’s and 2 tequila shots in every bar-ar
    G             C                  Em
But I can't, no I can't seem to get away.
D         Am              D
  Leaving her in Oklahoma didn't help ease the pain
             F     C         G
