Wild Summer Rose

Am Am E7 Am out on the plains where the earth meets the sky F Am when the sun goes down the moon is on the rise G C F we rest up our ponies my darling and I G E7 and camp by a half dried stream Am saddles and chaps on an old pole fence F the long prairie grass Am makes a fine feather bed G C F we lay by the fire till the edges were dead G E7 and dream some old cowboy dream C F C she’s my wild summer rose on the prairie tonight C G C with a soft look of love in her eyes C F and my wild summer rose will be with me tonight C G C we’ll be lost in that sweet paradise Am E7 Am I dreamed that night that I made my last run F Am Trying to stay on that strawberry side G C F As I lay in the dust all broken inside G E7 The thunder of the tunes faded away Am In the streets of Laredo there’s a Marlboro parade F Am They wrapped me all up in white linen today G C F While six Johnny cowboys carry me to my grave G E Six cowgirls go singing along C F C she’s my wild summer rose on the prairie tonight C G C with a soft look of love in her eyes C F and my wild summer rose will be with me tonight C G C we’ll be lost in that sweet paradise C F C C G C Am E7 Am She said cowboy wake up You’ve been dreaming again F Am Were you out on the range is that where you been G C F And that old way of life is gone like the wind G E7 Real life is here in your arms C F C she’s my wild summer rose on the prairie tonight C G C with a soft look of love in her eyes C F and my wild summer rose will be with me tonight C G C we’ll be lost in that sweet paradise
