    G                           C      G      D        G
She was a girl on a wagon train headed west across the plains
    Em                  C      D           Em                          C           D
The train got lost in a summer storm, they couldn't move west and they couldn't go on
         G                                        C             G             D         G
Then she saw him ridin' through the rain, he took charge of the wagons and he saved the train
    Em                      C         D         Em                  C          D              G
And she looked down and her heart was gone, the train went west but she stayed on in Lonesome Dove


A farmer's daughter with a gentle hand, A blooming rose in a bed of sand;
She loved the man who wore a star, A Texas Ranger known near and far.
So they got married and they had a child But times were tough and West was wild.
So it was no surprise the day she learned that her Texas man would not return to Lonesome Dove


Chorus:
Em                    G
Back to back with the Rio Grande
  C                      G       D/F#
A Christian woman in the devil's land.
    Em                       Bm
She learned the language and she learned to fight
        C                              Am
But she never learned how the beat the lonely nights 
   D        G
In Lonesome Dove


She watched her boy grow to a man, he had an angel's heart and the devil's hand
He wore his star for all to see , he was a Texas lawman legacy
Then one day word blew into town, it seemed the men that shot his father down
Had robbed a bank in Cherico , the only thing 'tween them and Mexico was Lonesome Dove


The shadows stretched across the land as the shots rang out down the Rio Grande
And when the smoke had finally cleared the street the men lay at the ranger's feet
But legend tells to this very day that shots were comin' from an alleyway
"Though no one knows who held the gun there ain't no doubt if you ask someone in Lonesome Dove


Chorus
