"DALLAS"
--written by Alan Jackson, Keith Stegall
--sung by the great 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[
] 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
