She was a girl on a wagon train,
[C] [G] headed west across the plain.
[Em] The train got lost in a summer [A] storm, [Em] they couldn't move west and they [A] couldn't go [D] home.
[G] She saw him riding through the rain, he took charge of the wagons and he saved the train.
She [Em] looked down and her [A] heart was gold, [Em] the train moved west but she [D] stayed on.
[G] It lonesomed a farmer's daughter with a gentle hand, a blooming rose in a bed of sand.
[Em] She loved a man who was [D] starving, [Em] a Texas Ranger known [D] near and far.
So [G] they got married and they had a child, [C] but [G] times were tough and the west was wild.
[Em] So it was no [C] surprise the [D] day that she learned that a [Am] Texas man would not [D] return to [G] lonesome dunes.
[Em] Back to back [G] with the Rio Grande, the Christian woman in the [Em] devil's land.
She learned the [G] language and she learned to [C] fight, but she never learned [Am] how to beat the lonely night.
[D]
[G] It lonesomed her, lonesomed her.
She watched her boy grow to a man, he had an angel's heart in the devil's hand.
[Em] He wore a star for [D] all to see, [Bm] a Texas lawman [D] legacy.
[G] One day work blew into town, a man that shot his father down.
[Em] Robbed a bank in [D] Cherico, the [Em] only thing between them and [D] Mexico.
[G] It lonesomed her, shadows stretched across the land.
Shots rang out down the Rio Grande, [Em] as the smoke finally [A] cleared the street.
[D] Men [C] lay at the [A] Ranger's feet, [G] legend tells to this very day, legend tells to this very day.
The shots were coming from an alleyway, [Em]
no one [C] knows who [D] held the gun.
There ain't [C] no doubt if you ask [A] someone.
[G] It lonesomed her.
Back to back with the Rio Grande, the Christian woman in the devil's [Em] land.
