[Intro] G Gm D [Verse 1]
    D         D7          G             Gm
I'm weary and tired, I've done my day's ridin'

D           Em7        A7
Nightime is rolling my way

    D            D7           G              Gm
The sky's all on fire and the light's slowly fadin'

D            G              D
Peaceful and still ends the day

F#m        Bm        F#m             D9
Out on the trail the night birds are callin'

G             Gm       D
Singin' their wild melody

F#m         Bm          F#m        D9
Down in the canyon, the cottonwood whispers

  G         Gm        D     G  Gm  D
A song of Wyoming for me
[Verse 2]
        D         D7        G             Gm
Well, I wandered around the towns and the cities

         D          Em7         A7
Tried to figure the how and the why

  D              D7                 G            Gm
I stopped all my schemin', I'm just driftin' and dreamin'

D            G          D
Watching the river roll by

F#m             Bm      F#m          D9
Here comes that big ole prairie moon risin'

G            Gm            D
Shinin' down bright as can be

F#m       Bm             F#m    D9
Up on the hill there's a coyote singin'

  G         Gm        D     G  Gm  D
A song of Wyoming for me
[Verse 3]
         D           D7          G            Gm
Now it's whiskey and tobacco and bitter black coffee

  D            Em7      A7
A lonesome old dogie am I

           D         D7             G            Gm
But wakin' up on the range, Lord, I feel like an angel

D           G            D
Free like I almost could fly

F#m          Bm        F#m      D9
Drift like a cloud out over the badlands

G           Gm          D
Sing like a bird in the tree

    F#m         Bm   F#m                D9
The wind in the sage sounds like heaven singin'

  G         Gm        D
A song of Wyoming for me

  G         Gm        D     G  Gm  D
A song of Wyoming for me
