Dallas

Alan Jackson

[G]Dallas  packed  her  suitcase

[C]And  drove  off  in  the  brand  new  car  I  [G]bought  her

[G]She  made  leaving  me  look  easy

[C]I  wish  she\'d  made  it  look  a  little  [G]harder

[D]I  took  her  out  of  Texas

[C]When  she  was  just  a  girl

[D]But  old  Tennessee  and  me

Couldn\'t  take  [C]Texas  out  of[D]  her


Chorus:


On  [G]how  I  wish  Dallas  was  in  [D]Tennessee

If  I  could  move  [C]Texas  east

Then[D
]  she\'d  be  here  with  me

Then  [G]nothin\'  else  would  come  between  the[D]  two  of  us

If  [C]Dallas  was  [D]in  Tennes[G]see


[G]By  now  she\'s  leaving  Memphis

[C]And  everything  we  had  [G]behind  her

[G]Lord  I  hope  the  gold  band  on  her[C]  hand

Will  serve  as  a  [G]reminder

[D]That  true  love  is  a  treasure

[C]That\'s  very  seldom  found

[D]But  you  can\'t  stay  together  if  [C]there\'s  no  common[D]  ground


Repeat  chorus  then  add

Oh  if  [C]Dallas  was  [D]in  Tennes[G]see
