[Verse 1]
[D]Whi[G]le [A]Cat[D] Ke[A]lly,[D]
[G]lookin' mighty [D]pale,
was standin' by the sheriff's [G]side,
[A]and when that sheriff[D] said,
I'm [G]sendin' you to [A]jail,
[D]Wild Cat [G]raised his head and [D]cried,
Oh, give me land, lots of [A]land,
under [D]starry skies above,
Don't fence me [Em]in
[A]Let me ride [Em]through the [A]wide
open [Em]country that [A]I love
Don't fence me [D]in
Let me be by my[A]self
in [D]the evening breeze
[G]Listen to the murmur
of the cottonwood trees
[D]Send me off [A]forever but I ask you [G]please
[D]Don[A]'t fence me in,[D] just turn me loose
[G]Let me straddle my old saddle
underneath the western [D]skies
On my [G]coyotes,
let me wander over yonder
Till I see the mountains [D]rise
[A]I want a r[D]ide to the ridge
where the west commences
And [G]gaze at the moon
until I lose my senses
I [D]can't look at hovels
and I [B]can't stand fences
[D]Don't [A]fence me [D]in[A][Em]
[G][A][D]
[G][Gm]
[D][G][D][A]
[D]Oh, give [A]me [D]land, lots of land
[A]Un [D]der starry skies
[A]Don[D]'t fence me [Em]in,
[A]let me ride thr[Em]ough the
wide country that [A]I love.
[G]Don[Em]'t fen[A]ce me in,[D]
let me be by my[A]self
in [D]the evening breeze.
[G]Listen to the murmur of the
cottonwood trees,
[D]send me off forever, but [A]I ask [B]you [G]please.
[D]Don't fence me [A]in, j[D]ust turn me loos[G]e,
let me straddle my old saddle
underneath the western [D]skies.[A]
[D]On my caillous
[G]let me wander over yonder
till I see the mountains [D]rise.
I want to ride to the ridge
where the west commences
and [G]gaze at the moon
until I lose my senses.
I [D]can't look at hobbles
and I [A]can't [G]stand [D]fences.
Don't [A]fence me [D]in [Bm].[D]
