[Chorus]
             D
Oh, carry me back to the lone prairie
                                          Em7 A7
Where the coyotes howl and the wind blows free
           Em7 A7             D
And when I die,  you can bury me
                   Em7 A7                D
'Neath the western sky,  on the lone prairie


[Verse 1]
             Em7    A7              D
I'm a roving cowboy,  far away from home
             Em7     A7                D    D7
Far from the prairie,  where I used to roam
                  Bm                        Em  A
Where the doggies wander and the wind blows free
                    Em7    A7                D
Thought my heart is yonder,  on the lone prairie


[Chorus]
             D
Oh, carry me back to the lone prairie
                                          Em7 A7
Where the coyotes howl and the wind blows free
           Em7 A7             D
And when I die,  you can bury me
                   Em7 A7                D
'Neath the western sky,  on the lone prairie
