INTRO: C  G  Am  G  F  G  C Cadd9-C

G        Am              G
You were standing on the sideline
     Am              G
In a dress of cotton blue
       Am         G             Am        Em
At the age when a girl begins to__ bloom
         Am          G
You were fair as any blossom
          F          G
That West Texas ever grew
        F               G                  C    Cadd9-C  G
And you whispered as we whirled around the room


CHORUS:
 Am        Em              F           C
"Love is a meadow, growing wild in the spring
    ~   Am                C                      G
And our hearts, a pair of bluebirds, as they call___
F              C               F             C
Dance with me, darling, like a flower in the wind
~      Am             G          C     Cadd9-C  G
To the strains of the Bluebonnet Waltz"


  Am                  G
I courted you through April
      Am             G
And I married you in May
       Am               G           Am       Em
And by summer, you were carrying our child
    Am                G
I recall those autumn evenings
         F                 G
We would waltz the nights away
     F               G                 C     Cadd9-C  G
As I lingered in the springtime of your smile


CHORUS:
 Am        Em              F           C
"Love is a meadow, growing wild in the spring
    ~   Am                C                      G
And our hearts, a pair of bluebirds, as they call___
F              C               F             C
Dance with me, darling, like a flower in the wind
~      Am             G          C     Cadd9-C
To the strains of the Bluebonnet Waltz"


INSTRUMENTAL: G  Am  Em  F  C ~ Am  C  G    F  C  F  C ~ Am  G  C Cadd9-C


      Am                   G
Now I still will bring you flowers
         Am              G
When the prairie blushes blue
   Am             G               Am       Em
To show you that another winter's passed
       Am            G
I will tell you of a young girl
          F                     G
Who, each year, looks more like you
         F                 G               C     Cadd9-C  G
And I'll seem to hear your voice across the grass


CHORUS:
 Am    Em                F          C
"Every springtime has to come to an end
~     Am            C            G
Every flower has to wither and fall
    F            C                 F       C
But think of me, darling, when the music begins
~           Am            G         Am   Em
Playing the strains of an old Texas waltz___
          F               Em
And we'll dance, one more time
           F               Em
Yes, we'll dance, one more time
         F               Em
Come and dance, one more time
       F          Am   Em    F  C
To the Bluebonnet Waltz___"
         Am               Em
Come and dance, one more time
       F   C      Am  
To the Bluebonnet Waltz___"
