  G                      C
A rose grows wild in the country

A tree grows tall as the sky

The wind blows wild in the country
    D                      C       D   G
And part of the wild, wild country, am I

A love grows tall as the sky
  G                      C
A heart beats wild in the country

Part of the wild, wild country, am I
