Tom: G
G
She was a girl on a wagon train
C G D G
Headed west a-cross the plains.
Em C D
The train got lost in a summer storm.
Em C D
They couldn't move west and they couldn't go home.
G
Then she saw him ridin' through the rain.
C G D G
He took charge of the wagons and he saved the train.
Em C
And she looked down and her heart was gone.
Em C D
The train went west but she stayed on in Lonesome Dove.
G
A farmer's daughter with a gentle hand,
C G D G
A blooming rose in a bed of sand;
Em C D
She loved the man who wore a star,
Em C D
A Texas Ranger known near and far.
G
So they got married and they had a child.
C G D G
But times were tough and West was wild.
Em C
So it was no surprise the day she learned
Em C
That her Texas man would not return
D
To Lonesome Dove.
Chorus:
Em G C G D/F#
Back to back with the Rio Grande, a Christian woman in the devil's land.
Em Bm
She learned the language and she learned to fight, but she
C Am D D G
never learned how the beat the lonely nights in Lonesome Dove,
D G
Lonesome Dove.
G
She watched her boy grow to a man.
C G D G
He had an angel's heart and the devil's hand.
Em C D
He wore his star for all to see.
Em C D
He was a Texas lawman legacy.
G
Then one day word blew into town.
C G D G
It seemed the men that shot his father down
Em C
Had robbed a bank in Cherico.
Em C
Tho only thing 'tween them and Mexico
D
Was Lonesome Dove.
G
The shadows stretched across the land
C G D G
As the shots rang out down the Rio Grande.
Em C D
And when the smoke had finally cleared the street,
Em C D
The men lay at the ranger's feet.
G
But legend tells to this very day
C G D G
That shots were comin' from an alleyway.
Em C
"Though no one knows who held the gun,
Em C
There ain't no doubt if you ask someone
D
In Lonesome Dove.
**Chorus
