Don't Fence Me In by Cole Porter
E A E
Wildcat Kelly was lookin' mighty pale
B7
Standin by the sheriff's side
E A E
When that sheriff said I'm taking you to jail
B E
Wildcat raised his head and cried
E E7
Oh give me land lots of land
E6 E
Under starry skies above
A E B7
Don't fence me in
F#m7 B7
Let me ride through the wide
F#m7 B7
Open spaces that I love
E
Don't fence me in
E Bm7 E7
Let me be by myself in the evening breeze
A Am7
Listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
E Bm C#7 A
Send me off for ever but I ask you please
E B7 E
Don't fence me in
E7 Bm7 E7 A
Just turn me loose
Let me straddle my old saddle
E
Underneath the western skies
E7 Bm7 E7 A
On my Cay-use
Let me wander over yonder
E Fdim7 B7
Where the purple mountains rise
F#m7 B7 E Bm7 E7
I want to ride to the ridge where the west com-men-ces
A Am7
Gaze at the moon 'til I lose my senses
E Bm C#7 A
Can't look at hobbles and I can't stand fences
E B7 E
Don't fence me in
E A E
Wildcat Kelly back again in town,
B7
was sitting by his sweetheart's side,
E A E
And when his sweetheart said, "Come on let's settle down."
B E
Wildcat raised his head and cried
E E7
Oh give me land lots of land
E6 E
Under starry skies above
A E B7
Don't fence me in
F#m7 B7
Let me ride through the wide
F#m7 B7
Open spaces that I love
E
Don't fence me in
E Bm7 E7
Let me be by myself in the evening breeze
A Am7
Listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
E Bm C#7 A
Send me off for ever but I ask you please
E B7 E
Don't fence me in
E7 Bm7 E7 A
Just turn me loose
Let me straddle my old saddle
E
Underneath the western skies
E7 Bm7 E7 A
On my Cay-use
Let me wander over yonder
E Fdim7 B7
Where the purple mountains rise
F#m7 B7 E Bm7 E7
