The Yellow Rose Of Texas Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D]

[Verse 1]
There's [D]a yellow [A]rose in
[D]Texas that I'm gonna see
[A]Nobody else could miss her,
not half as much as me
[D]She cried, so when I left her
it'd like [A]to broke my [D]heart
[G]And if I'd ever fin[D]d her,
we never more will part
She's the sweetest [A]little [D]rosebud
[A]that Tex[D]as ever knew
Her [A]eyes are bright as diamonds,
they sparkle like the dew
You may [D]talk about Clementine,
and sing of Rosalee
But [G]the yellow rose of [D]Texas is
the only girl for [G]me[D]
Where the Rio Grande is flowing
and the skies are bright
She [A]walks along the river in
the quiet summer night
I [D]know that she remembers
when we parted long ago
I [G]promised that [D]I'll return and
not to leave her so
She's the sweetest [A]little rosebud
that [D]Texas [A]ever [D]knew
Her [A]eyes are bright as diamonds,
they sparkle like the dew
You may [D]talk about Clementine,
[A]and sin[D]g of Ros a[A]lee[D]
But the [G]yellow rose of [D]Texas is
the only [A]girl for [D]me[G][D]
Now I'm going back to find her,
for my heart is [A]full of [D]vow
[A]We'll do the things together
we did so long ago
We'll [D]play the banjo gaily,
[A]she'll lov[D]e me like before
[A]And the yel[G]low rose of Tex[D]as shall
be [A]mine for ever [D]more
She's the sweetest [A]little [D]rosebud
that Texas [A]ever [D]knew
Her eyes are [A]bright as diamonds,
they sparkle like the dew
You may [D]talk [A]about [D]Clementine,
and sing of Rosalee
But the [G]yellow rose of [D]Texas
is [A]the only girl for [D]me
