Charley Crockett – Lonesome Dove Chords on Piano & Ukulele

These are Lonesome Dove chords by Charley Crockett for Piano and Ukulele.

[Verse 1]
     G               Am
Well I left lonesome dove
        C           G
For the country up above
        C                  G
And the soft warmth of her touch
            D
Through the night
  G           Am
I hated to be leaving
    C              G
But it was cutting season
        C
She was standing there
     D            G
With water in her eyes

[Verse 2]
G               Am
In Durango, Colorado
           C            
I held the necklace that
   G
 I bought her
      C
While tipping one
       G               D
At the Diamond Belle Saloon
       G               Am
Then I hitched up to Wyoming
       C              G
With a man who didn't know me
   C                D
He said he had some ponies
       G
Up for sale

[Chorus]
G
It's a Coke and Pepsi world
C                              G
They can have the whole thing, girl
C         D                 G
Long as I know your love is true
G
Everybody's chasing that glory
C                       G
Lord, it's the same old story
    C            D             G  Am C
But I got all my money down on you

[Interlude]
Dm F C F G C

[Verse 3]
C                      Dm
When I finally made Montana
        F                C
I could only think of my Anna
       F
In the sweet grass hills
        C               G
I could almost hear her voice
     C                Dm
This country, it just grows
       F              C
That's progress, I suppose
     F
Red, white or blue
G              C
You're my only choice

[Chorus]
C
It's a Coke and Pepsi world
F                              C
They can have the whole thing, girl
F         G                 C
Long as I know your love is true
C
Everybody's chasing that glory
F                       C
Lord, it's the same old story
    F            G             C
But I got all my money down on you
