Texas Bluebonnets
-Laurie Lewis-

[G] - [D] (Swing It)


[G] [D]
Those Texas Bluebonnets, how sweetly they grow
[G]
O're all the wide prairies, they're scattered like snow
[D]
They make all the meadows as blue as the skies
[G]
Reminding me of my little darlin's blue eyes.

[D]
Well I wanted to ramble so I started to roam
[G]
And I didn't think twice about leavin' my home
[D]
But when I got to Texas, not far from Burnet
[G]
Those Texas Bluebonnets wouldn't let me forget

(Chorus)
[G] [D]
Those Texas Bluebonnets, how sweetly they grow
[G]
O're all the wide prairies, they're scattered like snow
[D]
They make all the meadows as blue as the skies
[G]
Reminding me of my little darlin's blue eyes.

[Instrumental]

[G] [D]
I...ran out of money - went to work on a farm
[G]
Pickin' their mellons and hoe'in their corn
[D]
And all winter long Lord, I hearded their cows
[G]
And I tried to forget my little darlin' somehow.

[D]
But in Springtime it blossomed in every hue
[G]
And it just made my heart feel bluer than blue

[D]
Those Texas Bluebonnets, they smiled in the sun
[G]
But that just made me think of my only one.
