[Intro]
C
 
[Verse 1]
C                            F               C
All my life I've wondered if what I done was wrong
C                          G7
All I ever cared to do was ride my pony on
  C                     C7   F                C
I never had no heartache was always happy and gay
C                            G7              C
Until I met a Texas girl who stole my heart away
 
[Chorus]
C                                F             C
Where the sleepy Rio Grande goes slowly to the sea
       C                                    G7
It was there she promised to be mine throughout eternity
        C                       C7      F              C
But the angels they grew jealous of her beauty and her smile
    C                               G7            C
And came along one stormy night and stole away my bride
    C                              C7  F                   C
The birds have hushed their singing    sadness is over the land
    C                            G7         C
The birds miss my darling by the sleepy Rio Grande
 
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
    C                                   F               C
Her lips were like the Russian wine her hair it hung in curls
    C                                     G7
Her cheeks were like the dawn of day that breaks upon the world
      C                      C7       F               C
She's gone and left me lonely I miss the touch of her hand
   C                               G7        C
Tonight while I am walking by the sleepy Rio Grande
 
[Chorus]
C                                F             C
Where the sleepy Rio Grande goes slowly to the sea
       C                                    G7
It was there she promised to be mine throughout eternity
        C                               F              C
But the angels they grew jealous of her beauty and her smile
    C                               G7            C
And came along one stormy night and stole away my bride
    C                              C7  F                   C
The birds have hushed their singing    sadness is over the land
    C                            G7         C
The birds miss my darling by the sleepy Rio Grande
