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

C    E7   Am    C7   F  Em D7   G
Lone star shine down on my home town
E7   Am F   Ab  C    G  C
Fill my memory light my way

Cattle in the old corral, the open range all 'round
Eb               Bb                Eb
Sunlight and the smell of new mown hay
  G                    D7                G              D7
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
  C                E7            Am           C7
I know my home is waiting for me by the river shore
  F                 Em                D7              G
I know that all the ones I love would welcome me once more
   E7                Am            F                  Ab
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
