YELLOW ROSE OF TEXAS1 Misc. Cowboy
[D]There's a [G]yellow rose of Texas I'm [Em]goin' for to see,
No [C]other soldier knows her, no-[D]body only [D7]me.
She [G]cried so when I left her, it [Em]like to broke my heart,
And [C]if I ever find her, we [D]never-[D7]more will [G]part.
. . . .
[D]Where the [G]Rio Grande is flowing and [Em]starry skies are bright,
She [C]walks along the river in the [D]quiet summer [D7]night.
She [G]thinks if I remember we [Em]parted long ago;
I [C]promised to come back again and [D]never [D7]let her [G]go.
. . . .
[D]Oh, [G]now I'm goin' to find her, my [Em]heart is full of woe;
We'll [C]sing the song together we [D]sang so long a-[D7]go.
We'll [G]play the banjo gaily and [Em]sing the songs of yore,
And the [C]yellow rose of Texas will be [D]mine for-[D7]ever-m[G]ore.
. . . .
[D]She's the [G]sweetest rose of color this [Em]soldier ever knew.
Her [C]eyes are bright as diamonds, they [D]sparkle like the [D7]dew.
You may [G]talk about your winsome maids and [Em]sing of Rosalie,
But the [C]yellow rose of Texas beats the [D]belles of [D7]Tennes-[G]see.
