Most download versions of this song that I've heard are slightly sped up from the

format, so your guitar may sound out of tune while playing along... I'd say its about a 1/16th

higher than it should be.

VERSE 1

I'll be thinking of you pal at sunset time

Thinking of the happy days gone by

There beneath those dear old western skies

And I'll tell you just the reason why,

CHORUS

There's a love knot in my lariat,

And it's waiting for a blue eyed gal you bet,

While I'm riding the range all day

My old lasso seems to say, it twines around an ornery stray,

There's a love knot in my lariat

And it's waiting for my little prairie pet

When I swing me old lasso you hear me ‘yodelayheehoo’

There's a love knot in my lariat.

VERSE 2

I’ll be thinking of you pal at roundup time

when I’m riding cross the great divide

every time I swing my lariat

takes me back to someone I just cant forget.

CHORUS
