Garth Brooks - In Lonesome Dove guitar chord

Intro: G

Verse:

G

She was a girl on a wagon train

C G D G

Headed west across the plains

Em C D

The train got lost in a summer storm

Em C D

They couldn't move west and they couldn't go home

G

Then she saw him ridin' through the rain

C G D G

He took charge of the wagons and he saved the train

Em C D

And she looked down and her heart was gone

Em C D

The train went west but she stayed on

G

In Lonesome Dove

Verse:

G

A farmer's daughter with a gentle hand

C G D G

A blooming rose in a bed of sand

Em C D

She loved the man who wore a star

Em C D

A Texas Ranger known near and far

G

So they got married and they had a child

C G D G

But times were tough and the west was wild

Em C D

So it was no surprise the day she learned

Em C D

That her Texas man would not return

G G D/Fis

To Lonesome Dove

Chorus:

Em G

Back to back with the Rio Grande

C G D

A Christian woman in the devil's land

Em D

She learned the language and she learned to fight

C Am A H C E D

But she never learned how to beat the lonely nights

G

In Lonesome Dove, Lonesome Dove

Verse:

She watched her boy grow to a man

He had an angel's heart and the devil's hand

He wore his star for all to see

He was a Texas lawman legacy

Then one day word blew into town

It seemed the men who shot his father down

Had robbed a bank in Cherico

The only thing 'tween them and Mexico

Was Lonsome Dove

Verse:

The shadows stretched across the land

As the shots rang out down the Rio Grande

And when the smoke had finally cleared the street

The men lay at the ranger's feet

But legend tells to this very day

That shots were comin' from an alleyway

'Through no one knows who held the gun

There ain't no doubt if you ask someone

in Lonesome Dove
