From The Giant Harmonica Fakebook

Giant

  4   5   4 -4  5      43    4  5    6   5  -6
Just like a sleeping giant sprawling in the sun,

6   7   7     7    7  -7-6   6
In one great hand the Rio Grande

5   6  -6 6    5  4 -4
In the other, Galveston.

  4   5     4    -4    5   4 3
Where oil wells laugh at angels

 3    4  5    6    5  -6
And buzzards wheel above,

  7     7   7  -7 6    -6  -6    -6  -6   6 5
This, then, is Texas--Lone Star State of Texas.

This, then, is Texas--Land I love.

verse 2
My ma was born in Dallas, Father in Ft. Worth.
You can bet your boots I got my roots
In the good old Texas earth.
Just see the silver dollars
Falling from above.
This, then, is Texas--Lone Star State of Texas
This, then, is Texas--Land I love.

verse 3
God made these lonely acres where I ride alone,
But the devil cursed this land with thirst
And he bleached it like a bone.
One day a wild tronato
Next a gentle dove.
This, then, is Texas--Lone Star State of Texas
This, then, is Texas--Land I love

James Dean, Rock Hudson, and Elizabeth Taylor starred in this movie. Dean was killed in an auto accident shortly before it was released.
