The Yellow Rose Of Texas Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
There's [C#]a yellow
rose in Texas
[A]That I am [F#]gonna [G]back to [D]see[C#][D]
[C#]Nobody [A]else could miss her,
Not half as much as me
She cried [D]so [C#]when I left her,
[A]It [F#]like to broke my [C#]heart[D]
And [C#]if I e[D]ver find her
We [A]never more [C#]will part
[D]She's the sweetest

[Verse 2]
[F#]little rosebud[G]
That [C#]Texas [D]ever knew
Her eyes are bright as diamonds
They [A]sparkle like the dew
You may talk [D]about [A]your Clementine
And [F#]sing of Ros[G]a L[D]ee
But the Yellow [C#]Rose [D]of Texas
Is the [A]only girl for me.

[Verse 3]
Where [D]the Rio Grande is flow[C#]in',
[A]And [G]starry [F#]skies [G]are[D] bright[C#]
[D]She[C#] walks along the riv[D]er
[A]In the quiet summer night
I know that [D]she [A]rem[D]embers
[A]When we [G]par[F#]ted long [G]ago[C#][D]
I [C#]prom[D]ised t[C#]o re[D]turn
[A]And not to leave her [D]so

[Verse 4]
She's [G]the sweetest little rosebud
That [D]Texas [C#]ever [A]knew[D]
Her eyes are bright as dia[C#]mond[D]s
[C#]They [A]sparkle like the dew
You [D]may talk about your [A]Clementine
And [F#]sing of Rosa [D]Lee
But the Yellow [C#]Rose [D]of Texas
[A]Is [Ab]the o[A]nly [D]girl[G] for[D]
[A]me.[D]

[Verse 5]
Oh, [D]now I'm gonna [C#]find[D] her ,[C#][D]
For my [G]heart is full of [C#]woe[D]
We'll do the [C#]things [D]together
We [A]did so long ago
We'll play [D]the banjo [A]gaily,[G]
She'll love me [D]like before
And the Yel[C#]low Rose [D]of Texas
Shall [A]be mine forevermore
[D]She's the sweetest

[Verse 6]
[G]lit[F#]tle rosebud[G]
That [D]Texas ever knew
Her eyes are bright as diamonds
They [A]sparkle like the dew
You may talk [D]about your Clementine
[A]And [G]sing [F#]of Rosa[G] Lee[D]
But the Yellow Rose of Texas
Is [A]the only girl for [C#]me.
