C Cmaj7 C6 Cmaj7 C
Oh give me land, lots of land, and the starry skies above
G7
Don't fence me in
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love
C
Don't fence me in
C Cmaj7 C7
Let me be by myself in the evening breeze
F Fm
And listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
C Gm A A7
Send me off forever but I ask you please
D7 G7 C
Don't fence me in
F
Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle on
C
Underneath the western skies
F
On my cayuse, let me wander over yonder
C G7
Till I see the mountains rise
C Cmaj7 C7
I want to ride to the ridge where the West commences
F Fm
gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
C Gm A A7
And I can't look at hobbles and I can't stand fences
D7 G7 C
Don't fence me in
D. C.
