6 -5 5 6 6 6 -6 6
There's a yel-low rose in Tex-as

-5 5 6 7 -8 8
I'm go-ing there to see.

8 8 6 6 8 8 -8
No oth-er fel-ler knows her,

7 -7 7 -8 8 -8
No-bod-y else but me.

6 5 6 6 6 -6 6
She cried so when I left her

-5 5 6 7 -8 8
It like to broke my heart.

6 6 -9 -9 -9 -9 8 -8
And if we ev-er meet a-gain

7 7 6 8 -8 7
We nev-er more will part.

6 -5 5 6 6 6 -6 6
She's the sweet-est rose of col-or

-5 5 6 7 -8 8
A fel-ler ev-er knew.

6 6 8 8 8 8 -8
Her eyes are bright as dia-monds,

7 -7 7 -8 8 -8
They spark-le like the dew.

6 -5 5 6 6 6 -6 6 6
You may talk a-bout your dear-est maids

-5 5 6 7 -8 8
and sing of Ros-a-lie,

6 6 6 -9 -9 -9 -9 8
But the yel-low rose of Tex-as

-8 7 7 6 8 -8 7
Beats the bells of Ten-nes-see.
