*Note: I made an effort to make the chords line up in the appropriate place with
the lyrics, but something happens when I submit it and the formatting gets messed
up. Sorry, I did my best.
Dear old western skies
I wanna go
Where the longhorn cattle roam
Dear old western skies
There’ll never be
Another place like my old home
It seems that I can hear
The cattle lowin’
Seems that I can see
The purple sage blowin’
I hope Old Paint and I will hear the dogies
By and by
Under dear old western skies
The cowboy may roam from his homeland
Way out on the great divide
But in his heart he will still be a cowboy
And long for his pony to ride
Instrumental break
It seems that I can hear
The cattle lowin’
Seems that I can see
The purple sage blowin’
I hope Old Paint and I will hear the dogies
By and by
Under dear old western skies
Odelayeeo ‘delayeeay ‘delayeeo ‘delayeeo ‘delayee
