Traditional Cowboy Song

Recorded by Michael Martin Murphey

Home On The Range

G G7 C Cm

Oh, give me a home where the buffalo roam

G D7

Where the deer and the antelope play

G G7 C Cm

Where seldom is heard a discouraging word

G D7 G

and the skies are not cloudy all day

Chorus:

D7 G

Home, home on the range

D7

Where the deer and the antelope play

G C Cm

Where seldom is heard a discouraging word

G D7 G

and the skies are not cloudy all day

The Red Man was pressed from this part of the west

It's not likely he'll ever return

to the banks of Red River, where seldom, if ever

his flickering campfires still burn

Repeat chorus

How often at night when the heavens are bright

with the light from the glittering stars

Have I stood there amazed and asked, as I gazed

if their glory exceeds that of ours

Repeat chorus

Oh, give me a land where the bright diamond sand

flows leisurely down the stream

Where the graceful white swan goes gliding along

like a maid in a heavenly dream

Repeat chorus
