Chorus:
I’m gonna (C) roll with the (Am) tumbleweeds a-(F)cross this (G) prairie
(C) Rock in the (Am) saddle ‘neath a (F) hazy, harvest (G) moon
(F) Reel in a (G) dust storm with a (Am) cloth (D/F#) pulled ‘cross my face
Oh, (C) rest with the (Am) horses be-(F)side a rushing (C) stream
Come and (G) sit by the (Am) fire and (F) warm your dusty (G) hands
(G) Where ya’ (Am) from? Oh, just (F) north of here in the (G) Badlands.
(Am) There are (D/F#) slopes there – so (F) rugged and (C) so tall,
And, the (Am) sagebrush (D/F#) flowers in the (F) early (C) fall.
(G) Sometimes, the (Am) northern lights set the (F) evening sky (G) ablaze.
(G) Have you (Am) ever seen those (F) brilliant blue-green (G) rays?
When they (Am) flicker like a (D/F#) flame – (F) Never look the (C) same.
(Am)(D/F#)(F) Never to be (C) claimed.
Chorus:
I’m gonna (C) roll with the (Am) tumbleweeds a-(F)cross this (G) prairie
(C) Rock in the (Am) saddle ‘neath a (F) hazy, harvest (G) moon
(F) Reel in a (G) dust storm with a (Am) cloth (D/F#) pulled ‘cross my face
Oh, (C) rest with the (Am) horses be-(F)side a rushing (C) stream
(G) Once I let a (Am) lasso capture my (F) wild, wild (G) heart
(G) Then, I traded it (Am) in for a (F) chestnut mare and a (G) wooden cart
Left my (Am) love for the open (D/F#) range – (F) Finally, made a (C) change
(Am)(D/F#)(F) Isn’t love (C) strange?
Chorus:
I’m gonna (C) roll with the (Am) tumbleweeds a-(F)cross this (G) prairie
(C) Rock in the (Am) saddle ‘neath a (F) hazy, harvest (G) moon
(F) Reel in a (G) dust storm with a (Am) cloth (D/F#) pulled ‘cross my face
Oh, (C) rest with the (Am) horses be-(F)side a rushing (C) stream
