[Intro]
N.C.
This is a song about my home state
[Verse]
D G D
In eighteen hundred thirty-six outside of San Antone
A
Waved to the volunteers stood all alone
D G D
Surrounded by an army from down in Mexico
C7 D
Determined they would take a church called the Alamo
[Verse]
G D
General sent a message surrender to the man
A
But the cannon that we fired could be heard to the Rio Grande
D G D
And a message was on the lips of each and every man
C7 D
Well, the hell with Santa Anna this is Texas land
[Chorus]
G D
The hell with Santa Anna for this is Texas land
G D A
From the Red River to the Rio Grande
D G D
We fought the bold for what we got now we'll fight again
C7 D D
So, to hell with Santa Anna this is Texas land
[Verse]
D G D
The battle raged for many days and for many nights
A
This brave group of volunteers fighting for their rights
D G D
And every man he understood and he seemed to know
C7 D
That he was doomed to die in this place called the Alamo
[Verse]
G D
Now Travis gave his men a choice on that first day
A
And anyone that wanted to could proudly run away
D G D
But a message was on the lips of each and every man
C7 D
Well the hell with Santa Anna this is Texas land
[Chorus]
G D
The hell with Santa Anna for this is Texas land
G D A
From the Red River to the Rio Grande
D G D
We fought the bold for what we got now we'll fight again
C7 D D
So, to hell with Santa Anna this is Texas land
C7 D
Yeah the hell with Santa Anna this is Texas Land
