Don't Fence Me In - Willie Nelson and Leon Russell
 
[Verse 1]
            D
Oh, give me land, lots of land
      D
under starry skies above
               A7
Don't fence me in
       A7
Let me ride through the wide open
A7
country that I love
               D
Don't fence me in
       D                   D7
Let me be by myself in the evening breeze,
G
listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees,
D                         B7
send me off forever but I ask you please
E7    A7       D
Don't fence me in
 
[Verse 2]
             G
Just turn me loose, let me straddle my old saddle
                       D
underneath the western skies
      G
On my cayuse let me wander over yonder
                        D        A7
till I see the mountain rise
          D                           D7
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences,
G
gaze at the moon until I lose my senses,
  D                          B7
I can't look at hobbles and I can't stand fences
E7    A7       D
Don't fence me in

Great! Fits my voice well. One correction to the lyrics if you want. The spelling is Cayuse for the horse reference in the 13th line.

Just a comment It isn't hovels...it's hobbles, like in hobbling a horse so it can't wander off. Thanks

Great fun!
