Verse
D G D
In the lobby of a big hotel in New York town one day
E7 A
Sat a bunch of fellows telling yarns to pass the time away
D G D
They told of places where they'd been and different things they'd seen
G D A7 D
Some preferred Chicago town while others New Orleans
[Verse 2]
D G D
In the corner in an old armchair sat a man whose hair was gray
E7 A
He sat and listened eagerly to what they had to say
D G D
They asked him where he'd like to be, his clear old voice did ring
G D A7 D
"I'd like to be in Texas when they round-up in the Spring".
[Chorus]
D G D
I see the cattle grazing o'er the hills at early morn
G D A
I see the campfires smokin at the breaking of the dawn
D D7 G
I hear the bronco's neighing I can hear the cowboy sing
D A7 D
I'd like to be in Texas when they round-up in the spring.
[Verse 3]
D G D
Now, they sat and listened carefully to each word he had to say
E7 A
They knew the old man sitting there had been a top hand in his day
D G D
So they asked him for a story of his life out on the plains
D A7 D
Slowly he removed his hat, quietly began.
[Verse 4]
D G D
I've seen 'em stampede o'er the hills till you'd think they'd never stop
E7 A
I've seen em run for miles and miles until their leaders dropped
D G D
I was a foreman of a cow ranch, oh the callin' of a king
D A7 D
I'd like to be in Texas when they round-up in the Spring.
[Chorus]
D G D
I can see the cattle grazing o'er the hills at early morn
G D A
I can see the campfires smokin at the breaking of the dawn
D D7 G
I can hear the bronco's neighing I can hear the cowboy sing
D A7 D
I'd like to be in Texas when they round-up in the Spring.
[Verse 5]
D G D
Now there's a place in sunny Texas where Molly Demming sleeps
E7 A
Beneath a grove of mossy live oaks, a constant vigil keeps
D G D
And in my heart a recollection of a long, long bygone day
D A7 D
When we rode the range together like truent kids astray
[Verse 6]
D G D
Now her gentle spirit calls me in the watches of the night
E7 A
And I hear her laughter freshening the dew of early light
D G D
As I was foreman of a cow ranch oh, the callin' of a king,
D A7 D
I'd like to be in Texas when they roundup in the Spring
[Chorus]
D G D
I'd like to sleep my last long sleep with mother earth for bed
E7 A
And my saddle for a pillow, and the bright stars overhead
D G D
Then I could hear the last stampedes, the songs the rivers sing
D A7 D
Way back down in Texas when they round-up in the spring.
