G Cadd9 G
700 miles is a long way
Em
It's even longer alone
G Cadd9 G
It sure makes for a hard day
Em
Knowin' you're waiting back home
Am
But I have to remember
C
the reason why I'm here
G D
'Cause music was callin' my name
Am
But I still love you baby
C
And one thing won't change
G D
even if I find fortune and fame
G
I'm still your Texas boy, born and raised
Em
On country music and football games
Am
you're still the girl in my heart
C D
dream of being where you are
G
I won't forget where I'm from
Em
or why I'm here and who I love
Am C
These few things will always stay the same
D
and my love is that way
This faded old picture reminds me
of every thing we've been through
and this dream I've been chasing
proves there's a lot left to do
but I know this ain't easy
you're falling to pieces but I promise wherever I am
you'll always be with me, from your shadow to your heartbeat
'Cause you make me a better man
Chorus
Am
I'd do anything to hold you
Em
try my best to show you
Am C D
that my love for you will always be the same
Am
and now I'm begging you to hold on
Em
to that feeling that was so strong
Am C D
the day that I stepped on that plane
G
Girl I'm still your Texas boy, born and raised
Em
On Dallas Cowboys and George Strait
Am
you're still the girl in my heart
C D
dream of being where you are
G
I won't forget where I'm from
Em
or why I'm here and who I love
Am C D
These few things will always stay the same
Am C D
And I can't wait to prove to you someday
NC
my love is that way
