Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]The[D][Em][C][G][D][Em][C]
[G]Nashville friends [D]think
I'm strange [C]to make my [Am]home out [G]on the range
Think it's nothin' but a [D]God forsaken land

[Verse 2]
[C]
[D]
Why don't you [G]bring your gui[D]tar and family,
[C]move on down to Ten[G]nessee[D]
Well, [G]I just smile because
[D]they don't under[C]stand[D]
But if [Am]they ever saw a sunrise on
[D]a mountain mornin'
[G]Watched those cotton [D]candy
clouds [Em]roll by
They'd know [C]why I live [D]beneath these
western skies
[G][D][Em][C][G][D]

[Verse 3]
[Em][C]
I got [G]peace of mind and [D]el bow room [C]I
love the smell [G]of sage in bloom
Catch a rainbow [D]on my fishin' [C]line[D]
We got [G]county fairs and [D]rodeos,
ain't a [C]better place for my kid[G]s to grow

[Verse 4]
[G]Just turn 'em loose in the
[D]western summer [C]time
[D]And if you[Am] ever held your woman
on [D]a summer's evening
While the [G]prairie moon was [D]blazin'
in her eye[Em]s
You'd know [C]why I live be[D]neath
these western skies
[G][D][G]

[Verse 5]
[Em]
You ain't lived until [D]you've
watched those northern [C]lights[D]
[Em]Set around the campfire and [D]hear the
coyotes call at [C]night[Am]
[G]Makes you [D]feel al[C]right[D][G][D]
[C][G]

[Interlude 1]
[D][C][D][G]
[D][C][G][D][G]

[Verse 6]
So [G]guess I'll stay right where [D]I'm at,
[C]wear my [Am]boots and my [G]cowboy hat
But I'll come [D]and see ya once in [C]a while[D]
I'll [G]bring my guitar and [D]sing my songs,
[C]sorry if [Am]I don[G]'t stay too long
I love Tennessee but ya [D]know
it's just not my [C]style[D]
[Am]I gotta be where I can see
[D]those rocky mountains
[G]Ride my horse and [D]watch an eagle [Em]fly
I gotta [C]live my life and write my songs
[D]beneath these western ski[G]es[D][Em]

[Verse 7]
When I [C]die you can bury [D]me beneath these western [G]skies,
[D]yip[Em]pee[C]

[Outro 1]
