Verse 1
    D                 A                    G                D
The Nashville friends think Iām strange to make my home out on the range

                         A            G      A
Think itās nothinā but a God forsaken land
D                                   A       G                  D
Why donāt you bring your guitar and family, move on down to Tennesse
                           A                G
Well, I just smile because they donāt understand
            G                       A
But if they ever saw a sunrise on a mountain morninā
D                    A                 G
Watched those cotton candy clouds roll by
                          A                  D
Theyād know why I live beneath these Western Skies

Verse 2

I got peace of mind and elbow room I love the smell of sage in bloom
Catch a rainbow on my fishinā line
We got county fairs and rodeos, aināt a better place for my kids to grow

Just turn Īem loose in the western summer time
And if you ever held your woman on a summerās evening
While the prairie moon was blazinā in her eyes
Youād know why I live beneath these Western Skies


Bridge:
Bm                           A                      G         A
You aināt lived until youāve watched those Northern Lights
Bm                                   A               G
Set around the campfire and hear the coyotes call at night
          A
Makes you feel alright


Verse 3

So guess Iāll stay right where Iām at, wear my boots and my cowboy hat
But Iāll come and see ya once in a while
Iāll bring my guitar and sing my songs, sorry if I donāt stay too long
I love Tennessee but ya know itās just not my style
I gotta be where I can see those Rocky Mountains
Ride my horse and watch an eagle fly
I gotta live my life and write my songs beneath these Western Skies


When I die you can bury me beneath these Western Skies, Yippee Yi

I liked this tab a lot. Maybe there it should go A,D,A,G on the last lines of the verses. It's just a guess. Chris Ledoux rocks.
