[verse 1]
G C G
We’d heard of the ranges of the Yellowstone Valley
A7 D7
Where the summers are short and the grasses are high
G C G
Those swarms of mosquitos will near drive you crazy
D7 G
Stars shine like diamonds in the Yellowstone sky

[verse 2]
C G
We gathered our herd in the brush of south Texas
A7 D7
Tonight we’re in view of the Dodge City lights
G C G
Buck says we’re only halfway to Montana
D7 G
We’re bound for country that’s well worth the ride

[chorus]
Em G
There’s a big summer range on the Yellowstone River
Em G Am
It’s lush and it’s green and it stretches for miles
D7 C D7 G
Nothing compares to the Yellowstone Valley
D7 Em D7 G
There’s nothing as blue as the Yellowstone sky

[verse 3]
G C G
Oh the mornings are cooler than they were in Texas
A7 D7
The horses all feel good and wantin’ to play
G C G
I’ve got one old knot head that bucks every morning
D7 G
To get even with him I’ll ride him two days

[verse 4]
C G
And I never once thought I would be leaving Texas
A7 D7
My family’s been down there since after the war
G C G
I’m just like my daddy and his dad before him

I want to see country I ain’t seen before

As we rode through Nebraska I spotted a cabin

A young girl in calico stood by the door
G C G
A redheaded dream she’s a fair ranchers daughter
