Cole Porter Chords & Lyrics - Misc Unsigned Bands - Dont Fence Me In

[Chords by Joan's Genius 2008}

This is my most favorite song. The chords below are based on my 2 favorite covers of this:
(1) a very slow & quiet blues rendition by Holly Cole &
(2) a very fast & lively cajun version by David Byrne.

[E]Oh, giv[E7]e me la[A]nd, lots of land under starry skies above
Don't fence me [E]in
[E]Let me ride through the wide-open country that I love
[E]Don't f[E7]ence me i[A]n

[A]Oh let me be by myself in the [A7]evening breeze
[D]Listen to the murmur of the [Dm]cottonwood trees
[A]Send me off forever, but I [A7]ask you, please
[E]Don't [E7]fence me [A]in

[A7] Just let me lo[D]ose
Let me straddle my old saddle underneath the western s[A]kies
[A7] On my cay[D]use
Let me wonder over yonder till I see the mount[A]ains rise

[E] I w[E7]ant to [A]ride to the ridge where the [A7]West commences
[D]Gaze at the moon until I l[Dm]ose my senses
[A]Can't look at h[A7]obbles &[D] I can't st[Dm]and fences
[E]Don't f[E7]ence me i[A]n
