Verse
F A# F
In the lobby of a big hotel in New York town one day
G7 C
Sat a bunch of fellows telling yarns to pass the time away
F A# F
They told of places where they'd been and different things they'd seen
A# F C7 F
Some preferred Chicago town while others New Orleans
[Verse 2]
F A# F
In the corner in an old armchair sat a man whose hair was gray
G7 C
He sat and listened eagerly to what they had to say
F A# F
They asked him where he'd like to be, his clear old voice did ring
A# F C7 F
"I'd like to be in Texas when they round-up in the Spring".
[Chorus]
F A# F
I see the cattle grazing o'er the hills at early morn
A# F C
I see the campfires smokin at the breaking of the dawn
F F7 A#
I hear the bronco's neighing I can hear the cowboy sing
F C7 F
I'd like to be in Texas when they round-up in the spring.
[Verse 3]
F A# F
Now, they sat and listened carefully to each word he had to say
G7 C
They knew the old man sitting there had been a top hand in his day
F A# F
So they asked him for a story of his life out on the plains
F C7 F
Slowly he removed his hat, quietly began.
[Verse 4]
F A# F
I've seen 'em stampede o'er the hills till you'd think they'd never stop
G7 C
I've seen em run for miles and miles until their leaders dropped
F A# F
I was a foreman of a cow ranch, oh the callin' of a king
F C7 F
I'd like to be in Texas when they round-up in the Spring.
[Chorus]
F A# F
I can see the cattle grazing o'er the hills at early morn
A# F C
I can see the campfires smokin at the breaking of the dawn
F F7 A#
I can hear the bronco's neighing I can hear the cowboy sing
F C7 F
I'd like to be in Texas when they round-up in the Spring.
[Verse 5]
F A# F
Now there's a place in sunny Texas where Molly Demming sleeps
G7 C
Beneath a grove of mossy live oaks, a constant vigil keeps
F A# F
And in my heart a recollection of a long, long bygone day
F C7 F
When we rode the range together like truent kids astray
[Verse 6]
F A# F
Now her gentle spirit calls me in the watches of the night
G7 C
And I hear her laughter freshening the dew of early light
F A# F
As I was foreman of a cow ranch oh, the callin' of a king,
F C7 F
I'd like to be in Texas when they roundup in the Spring
[Chorus]
F A# F
I'd like to sleep my last long sleep with mother earth for bed
G7 C
And my saddle for a pillow, and the bright stars overhead
F A# F
Then I could hear the last stampedes, the songs the rivers sing
F C7 F
Way back down in Texas when they round-up in the spring.
