        C          G
Man you better let go

          C       G
You can't hold on to

     G  N.C.                     D      G
What belongs to me, and don't belong to you

   C          G
I caught you looking

          C      G
With your roving eye

          G N.C.                D       G    G
So Mister you don't have to act so surprised
[Chorus]
                C
If it's her you want

                   G    C
I don't care about that

        G N.C.                  D         G
You can have my girl, but don't touch my hat
[Verse 2]
   C      G
I grew up lonesome

        C   G
On the open range

              G    N.C.              D         G
And that cold North wind, can make a man feel strange

    C      G
My John B. Stetson

        C    G
Was my only friend

     G  N.C.                      D     G
And we've stuck together through many a woman
[Chorus]
                C
If it's her you want

                   G    C
I don't care about that

         G N.C.                 D         G
You can have my girl, but don't touch my hat
[Bridge]
         C
My mama told me

           G
Son to be polite

           C
Take your hat off

                D
When you walk inside

                  C
But the winds of change

              G   C
They fill the air

              G N.C.                  D   G
And you can't set your hat down just anywhere
[Verse 3]
          C          G
So if you plead not guilty

     C       G
I'll be the judge

          G N.C.            D      G
We don't need no jury to decide because

   C       G
I wear a seven

           C       G
And you're out of order

              G   N.C.                D             G
'Cause I can tell from here, You're a seven and a quarter
[Chorus]
                C
If it's her you want

                   G    C
I don't care about that

        G N.C.                  D         G
You can have my girl, but don't touch my hat

                C
If it's her you want

                   G    C
I don't care about that

        G N.C.                  D         G
You can have my girl, but don't touch my hat
[Bridge 2]
             C
No it never complains

              G
And it never cries

                C
And it looks so good

                  D
And it fits just right
[Chorus]
N.C.               G    C
So if it's her you want

                   G    C
I don't care about that

         G N.C.                  D       G
You can have my girl, but don't touch my hat
[Outro]
               G N.C.                  D       G
Well, you can have my girl, but don't touch my hat

               G N.C.                  D       G
Well, you can have my girl, but don't touch my hat
