[VERSE 1]

The [D]childhood memories I treasure the [D7]most I [G]suppose [Em]
were the [A]Saturday afternoons [A7]spent at the [A]town's picture [D]show
[A]I'd [D]work all day l[A]ong in the f[D]ields but at night I would [G]dream [Em]
[A]That I'd see Gene [Em]Autry go r[A]iding across the big [D]screen [A] [D] [A]
[D]Saturday [A]mornings I'd w[D]alk five m[A]iles or [G]more [Em]
and t[A]welve O'clock [Em]noon found me f[A]irst one in line at the [D]door[A] [D]
[A]I w[D]orked all week l[A]ong but t[D]oday I [A]fulfilled my d[G]ream [Em]
and I'd see Gene Autry go [A]riding across the big [D]screen[D7]

[CHORUS 1]

The [G]man in the white cowboy hat is a hero to [D]me [A] [D]
[A]He w[D]as and he i[A]s now a[D]nd I guess he a[Em]lways will b[A]e
[D]Time takes [A]away many t[D]hings but it [A]can't take a [G]dream [Em]
[A]And I see Gene Autry go riding across the big [D]screen

[VERSE 2]

[D]Oft as a child from our home in the country I'd r[G]oam [Em]
And my Daddy would [A]scold me cause I'd never [Em]be around h[D]ome [A] [D]
[A]Ah but [D]Mom under[A]stood me [D]cause she'd always smile when I use to [G]say [Em]
Gene A[A]utry and [Em]I have been [A]rounding up outlaws all [D]day [A] [D]

[CHORUS 2]

[G]The man in the white cowboy hat is a hero to [D]me [A] [D]
[A]He w[D]as and he i[A]s now a[D]nd I guess he a[Em]lways will [A]be
[D]Time takes [A]away many t[D]hings but it c[A]an't take a [G]dream [Em]
[A]And I see Gene Autry go riding across the big [D]screen
[A]And I see Gene Autry go riding across the big [D]screen [A] [D]
