Dont Fence Me In - Cole Porter Chords
“Don’t Fence Me In” – Cole Porter
[Chords by Joan’s Genius 2008}
This is my most favorite song. The chords below are based on my 2 favorite covers of this:
(1) a very slow & quiet blues rendition by Holly Cole &
(2) a very fast & lively cajun version by David Byrne.
E E7 A
Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above
E
Don’t fence me in
E
Let me ride through the wide-open country that I love
E E7 A
Don’t fence me in

A A7
Oh let me be by myself in the evening breeze
D Dm
Listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
A A7
Send me off forever, but I ask you, please
E E7 A
Don’t fence me in
A7 D
Just let me loose
Dm A
Let me straddle my old saddle underneath the western skies
A7 D
On my cayuse
Dm A
Let me wonder over yonder till I see the mountains rise
E E7 A A7
I want to ride to the ridge where the West commences
D Dm
Gaze at the moon until I lose my senses
A A7 D Dm
Can’t look at hobbles & I can’t stand fences
E E7 A
Don’t fence me in.
