Hell In Texas

Em Em In hell were told the devils chained Em G Never did he groan Em A thousand years he there remained Em D But sought a hell his own Em Torment he would the souls of men Em G He asked the lord a hand Em Being chained in a prison pen G D Em What's left upon this land Am He lengthened the horns of the Texas steers Em Put an addition to the rabbits hears Am Put a little devil in the bronco steed Em And poisoned the feet of the centipede G D Em Oh hell in Texas... Em The devil went to take a look Em G See what he had sewn Em He damned the seeds and cursed the soil Em D Made the great unknown Em A trade was made and he returned Em G Shook his golden hand Em The Devil flew made his way down south G D Em To the Rio Grande Am Thorns he put on all the trees Em Mixed the sands with all the fleas Am Tarantula along the roads Em Thorns on cactus and horns on toads G D Em Oh hell in Texas... Em Where UFOs and vultures fly Em G Spectres in the night Em Images the devil sent Em D To trick the lonely mind Em It's the land that I call home Em G Born in Dallas Way Em From the east she did rise G D Em Mother's youngest son Am The rattlesnake bites and the scorpion stings Em Takes delights with his buzzing wings Am The sand and flies will find a way Em To follow you throughout the day G D Em Oh hell in Texas.....
