[C]
[G] There's a yellow rose in Texas that I'm gonna see
[D] No other soldier knows her, no soldier, only me
[G] She cried so when I left her, it like to broke my heart
[Em] And if I [G] ever find her, we never more will part
She's the sweetest rose of color this soldier ever knew
Her eyes are [D] bright as diamonds, they sparkle like the dew
[G] You may talk about your dearest May and sang of Rosalie
But the [Cm] yellow [G] rose of Texas beats the bells of Tennessee
[C]
[G] Where the Rio Grande is flowing and the starry skies are bright
[D] She walks along the river in the quiet summer night
[G] She thinks if I remember when we parted long ago
[C] I promise to [G] come back again and not [D] to [G] leave her so
She's the sweetest rose of color this soldier ever knew
[D] Her eyes are bright as diamonds, they sparkle like the [G] dew
You may talk about your dearest May and sang of Rosalie
[C] But the yellow [G] rose of Texas beats the bells of Tennessee
Oh, [D]
[G]
[C]
[G] my feet are torn and bloody and my heart is full of woe
[D] I'm going back to Georgia to find my Uncle Joe
You [G] may talk about your Beauregard and sang of Bobby Lee
[C] But the gallant [G] hood of Texas, he played hell in Tennessee
She's the sweetest rose of color this soldier ever knew
[D] Her eyes are bright as diamonds, they sparkle like the dew
You [G] may talk about your dearest May and sang of Rosalie
[C] But the yellow [G] rose of Texas beats the bells of Tennessee
