In Lonesome Dove By Garth Brooks rmofle at satx.rr.com 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
