**Title: He's choosing Texas ** [Verse 1] Lead: I thought I had him settled down in Tennessee Thought his heart was finally right where it should be with me But one more run through that same old town And I swear I heard her name in that skyline draggin’ him around [Chorus] Lead: He’s choosin’ Texas, I can tell By the way he two-steps right through my goodbye spell A cowboy don’t stay where he fell Nah, he’s choosin’ Texas—and her— I can tell [Verse 2] Lead: He used to roll his eyes at those Lone Star light songs Now he’s hummin’ ’em low when he thinks I’m gone too long I kept tryin’ to be the home he’d hold tight But some hearts just wander back to where their old love’s waitin’ tonight [Chorus] Lead: He’s choosin’ Texas, I can tell By the way he two-steps right through my goodbye spell A cowboy don’t stay where he fell Nah, he’s choosin’ Texas—and her— I can tell [Bridge] Lead: Ain’t no point fightin’ what was there all along Deep down, she’s the one he’s been singin’ in his song So I’ll let him go with grace, let these tears ring true If Texas and that old love call, there ain’t nothin’ I can do [Final Chorus] Lead: He’s choosin’ Texas, I can tell By the way he slips away with that old familiar spell A cowboy don’t stay where he fell Nah, he’s choosin’ Texas—and her— I can tell [Outro – optional] Lead: Nah, he’s choosin’ Texas… Backup (fade, high harmony): (Texas… and her…)
