VERSE 1:

My Nashville friends think I'm strange

to make my home out on the range

Think it's nothin' but a God forsaken land

Why don't you bring your guitar and family,

move on down to Tennesse

Well, I just smile because they don't understand

But if they ever saw a sunrise on a mountain mornin'

Watched those cotton candy clouds roll by

They'd know why I live beneath these Western Skies

VERSE 2:

I got peace of mind and elbow room I

love the smell of sage in bloom

Catch a rainbow on my fishin' line

We got county fairs and rodeos,

ain't a better place for my kids to grow

Just turn'm loose in the western summer time

And if you ever held your woman on a summer's evening

While the prairie moon was blazin' in her eyes

You'd know why I live beneath these Western Skies

BRIDGE:

You ain't lived until you've watched those Northern Lights

Set around the campfire and hear the coyotes call at night

Makes you feel alright

VERSE 3:

So guess I'll stay right where I'm at,

wear my boots and my cowboy hat

But I'll come and see ya once in a while

I'll bring my guitar and sing my songs,

sorry if I don't stay too long

I love Tennessee but ya know it's just not my style

I gotta be where I can see those Rocky Mountains

Ride my horse and watch an eagle fly

I gotta live my life and write my songs beneath these Western Skies

When I die you can bury me beneath these Western Skies, Yippee Yi
