There’s a yellow rose in Texas that I am going to see
D7
No other cowboy knows her nobody only me
G
She cried so when I left her it like to broke her heart
C

D7
G
And if we ever meet again we never more shall part
D7
Her eyes are bright as diamonds they sparkle like the dew
G
You may talk about your dearest maids and sing of Rosalie
C

D7
G
But the yellow rose of Texas beats the belles of Tennessee
D7
We walked along together on a quiet summer night
G
She said if you remember when we parted long ago
C

D7
G
You promised to come back again and never leave me so
D7
Her eyes are bright as diamonds they sparkle like the dew
G
You may talk about your dearest maids and sing of Rosalie
C

G
But the yellow rose of Texas beats the belles of Tennessee
D7
We’ll sing the song together we sang so long ago
G
We’ll pick the banjo gaily and sing the songs of yore
C

G
And the yellow rose of Texas will be mine for ever more
D7
Her eyes are bright as diamonds they sparkle like the dew
G
You may talk about your dearest maids and sing of Rosalie
C

But the yellow rose of Texas beats the belles of Tennessee
