Verse 1
Oh give me G land, lots of Gmaj7 land under G6 starry skies a-Gmaj7-bove,
G6 Don't D7 fence me Am7 in, D7
Let me Am7 ride through the D7 wide open Am7 country that I D7 love,
Am7 Don't D7 fence me G in.
Verse 2
Let me G be by my-Gmaj7-self in the evening G7 breeze,
And C listen to the murmur of the cottonwood Cm trees.
G Send me off for-G7-ever,
but I E7 ask you, Am7 please,
G Don't D7 fence me G in.
Chorus
G Just turn me C loose, let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western G skies. G7
G7 On my cay-C-use let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains G rise... D7*
Outro
I want to G ride to the Gmaj7 ridge, where the west com-G7-mences,
And C gaze at the moon until I lose my Cm senses.
And I G Can't look at G7 hobbles, and I E7 can't stand Am7 fences.
G Don't D7 fence me G in.
slowing
And I G Can't look at G7 hobbles, and I E7 can't stand Am7 fences.
G* Don't D7* fence me G* in.
