"Don't Fence Me In" by Cole Porter

Wildcat Kelly was lookin' mighty pale
Standin by the sheriff's side
When that sheriff said I'm taking you to jail
Wildcat raised his head and cried

Oh give me [G]land lots of [GM7]land
Under [G6]starry skies a[G]bove
Don't [C+5]fence [G]me [D7]in

Let me [Am7]ride through the [D7]wide
Open [Am7]spaces that I [D7]love
Don't fence me [G]in

Let me [G]be by myself in the evening [Dm7]breeze [G7]
[C]Listen to the murmur of the [Cm7]cottonwood trees
[G]Send me off for[Dm]ever but I [E7]ask you [Cm7]please
[G]Don't [D7]fence me [G]in

[G7]Just [Dm7]turn [G7]me [G]loose
Let me straddle my old saddle
Underneath the western [G]skies

[G7]On [Dm7]my [G7]Ca[C]yoose
Let me wander over yonder
Where the purple mountains [G]rise [G#dim] [D7]

I [Am7]want [D7]to [G]ride to the ridge when the west com[Dm7]men[G7]ces
[C]Gaze at the moon 'til I [Cm7]lose my senses
[G]Can't look at [Dm]hobbles and I [E7]can't stand [Cm7]fences
[G]Don't [D7]fence me [G]in
