[Verse 1]
C              Em/B             Am         C7/G
I can see that lone star from a thousand miles away
F               Em               D7/F#        G7
Calling me back home though I've ventured far astray
E7/G#           Am             F          Ab7
When I see that beacon shining for me all alone
C                   G            C
It calls me back to Texas and to home

[Chorus]
C    Em/B  Am   C7/G
Lone star shine down
F  Em D7/F# G7
On my home town
E7/G# Am F  Ab7
Fill my memory
C     G  C
Light my way

[Bridge]
Cm            Fm              G7             Cm
Cattle in the old corral, the open range all 'round
Eb               Bb7                Eb
Sunlight and the smell of new mowed hay
G                      D7                G
I remember though I've wandered and much happiness I've found
G                 D7                    G   G7
Still I wish that I could be back there today

[Verse 2]
C                 Em/B           Am           C7/G
I know my home is waiting for me by the river shore
F                   Em               D7/F#           G7
I know that all the ones I love will welcome me once more
E7/G#                Am            F                  Ab7
In dreams I see them now though it seems I'm bound to roam
C                        G            C
My thoughts are still of Texas and of home
