INTRO:     D     A     D

VERSE 1
D                       G               D
I'll be thinking of you pal at sunset time
G                                D
Thinking of the happy days gone by
A                                     D
There beneath those dear old western skies
E                                  A - G - F#/D - E - D
And I'll tell you just the reason why,

CHORUS
D                   G         D
There's a love knot in my lariat,
A                                        D
And it's waiting for a blue eyed gal you bet,
          G
While I'm riding the range all day
       D                      E                         A - G - F#/D - E - D
My old lasso seems to say, it twines around an ornery stray,
D                   G        D
There's a love knot in my lariat
          A                            D
And it's waiting for my little prairie pet
      G                                D
When I swing me old lasso you hear me ?yodelayheehoo?
D                  A          D
There's a love knot in my lariat.

VERSE 2

D                      G               D
I?ll be thinking of you pal at roundup time
G                                 D
when I?m riding cross the great divide
A                    D
every time I swing my lariat
         E                               A - G - F#/D - E - D
takes me back to someone I just cant forget.
