[Verse 1]
[C]Wild[F]cat kel[C]ley,
[F]lookin' mighty [C]pale
Was standin' [Am]by the sherri[Dm]f's side[G]
And [C]when [F]the sher[C]rif said
"I'm [F]sendin you to [G]jail
[Am]Wildcat [Dm]raised his head and [C]cried
Oh, give me land,
lots of land under [Am]starry skies [C]above
Don't [A]fence me [Dm]in
[G]Let me rid[Dm]e through the wide-
open country that I [G]love
[Dm]Don't [G]fence me [C]in
Let me be by my[Em]self in [Edim]the
even[C]in' breeze
[F]Listen [Dm]to the murmur o[F]f
the cottonwood [Fm]trees
[C]Send me off [Gm]forever,
but I [A]ask you, [Dm]please
[C]Don't [G]fence me in
[Am]Just turn [F]me loose,
let me [Dm]straddle my ol' [F]saddle
under[G]neath the western [C]skies[F]
[C]On [Am]my cayuse,[F]
let me [G]wander [F]over yonder 'till I [Dm]see the [G]mountains [C]rise[Dbdim]
[G]I wan[C]t to ride to the ridge where
the [Edim]west comme[C]nces
[F]Gaze at the moon 'till I lose my [Fm]senses
[C]Can't look at hobbles [Edim]and
I [A]can't stand [Ddim]fences
[C]Don't fence [G]me [C]in[Dm][G][C]

[Verse 2]
[C]Wild[F]cat [C]kel[F]ley, back again in town
Was [C]sittin' [Dm]by his sweet
[A]heart's [Dm]side[G]
And [C]when [F]his [C]sweetheart said [F]"come on,
let's [G]settle down"
[C]Wild[Am]cat [Dm]raised his h[G]ead and [C]cried
Oh, [Am]give [C]me land,
lots of land [Am]under [C]starry skies above
Don't fence [A]me [Dm]in
[G]Let me rid[Dm]e through the wid[G]e
open country [Dm]that I [G]love
[Dm]Don't [G]fence me [C]in
[G]Let me be [C]by myself in the
[Edim]evenin' [C]breeze
[F]Listen to the [Dm]murmur [F]of the
cottonwood [Ddim]trees
[C]Send me off forever [Edim]but I
[A]ask you [Dm]please[Ddim]
[C]Don't [G]fence me [C]in
Just turn [F]me loose,
let me straddle my ol' [Dm]saddle under
[G]neath the [F]western [Dm]skies[Am][Dm]
[C]On my cay[G]use[F], let me wander ove[G]r yon[F]der
[Dm]'till I [G]see the [F]mountain[C]s rise[Dbdim][G]
I want [C]to ride to the ridge
where the [Gm]west commences
[F]Gaze at the moon 'till
I lose [Dm]my se[Fm]nses

I [A]can't stand [Ddim]fences
[C]Don't [F]fence me in[C][Am]
