Appears there are two distinct version under the same title, then.

The Tubbs version:


Waltz Across Texas, performed by Ernest Tubb



INTRO: play the line below instrumentally

D       D7                      G
I could waltz across Texas with you


VERSE ONE
    G                     D
When we dance together, my world's in disguise
                  D7               G
It's a fairy-land tale that's come true
                                  D                           
And when you look at me with those stars in your eyes
         D7                     G
I could waltz across Texas with you



CHORUS -----------------------------------------
G                      D
Waltz across Texas with you in my arms
D7                      G
Waltz across Texas with you
G                            D            
Like a story-book ending, I'm lost in your charms
             D7                     G
And I could waltz across Texas with you
-----------------------------------------------



CHORUS REPEAT INSTRUMENTALLY(over below)

G                      D            
Waltz across Texas with you in my arms
D7                      G
Waltz across Texas with you
       G                      D            
Like a story-book ending, I'm lost in your charms
             D7                   G
And I could waltz across Texas with you


VERSE TWO

My heartaches and troubles are just up and gone
The moment that you come in view                                                   
And with your hand in mine dear, I could dance on and on                              
I could waltz across Texas with you

chorus

TAG
       D             D7          G
