Troyal Garth Brooks (born February 7, 1962 in Tulsa, Oklahoma) is an American country music singer songwriter and charity director.
Brooks was a phenomenal musical force in the 1990s. He had his chart breakthrough in 1989, having come apparently from nowhere, and was an immediate commercial success. Lacking the tall and lanky physical appearance typical of some male country stars, he successfully integrated pop and rock elements into his recordings and live performances.

Artist: Garth Brooks Song: In Lonessome Dove (This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation of the song. You may only use this file for private study, scholarship, or research)
[1] G | | She|was a girl on a wagon train| CGDG headed west a-cross the plains.| EmCD The | train got lost in a summer storm.| EmCD They | coudln't move west and they couldn't go| G home. Then she | saw him ridin' through the rain.| CGDG He took | charge of the wagons and he saved the train.| EmC And | she looked down and her heart was gone.| EmCD The | train went west but she stayed | on in Lonesome Dove.|
[2] A farmer's daughter with a gentle hand, A blooming rose in a bed of sand; She loved the man who wore a star, A Texas Ranger known near and far. So they got married and they had a child. But times were tough and West was wild. So it was no surprise the day she learned That her Texas man would not return To Lonesome Dove. CHORUS
[3] She watched her boy grow to a man. He had an angel's heart and the devil's hand. He wore his star for all to see. He was a Texas lawman legacy. Then one day word blew into twon. It seemed the men that shot his father down Had robbed a bank in Cherico. Tho only thing 'tween them and Mexico Was Lonesome Dove. (to verse 4)
[4] The shadows stretched across the land As the shots rang out down the Rio Grande. And when the smoke had finally cleared the street, The men lay at the ranger's feet. But legend tells to this very day That shots were comin' from an alleyway. "Though no one knows who held the gun, There ain't no doubt if you ask someone In Lonesome Dove. CHORUS
[CHORUS] EmGCGD/F# Back to back with the Rio Grande, a | Christian woman in the devil's land. EmBm She | learned the language and she learned to fight, but she| CAmDDG never learned how the beat the | lonely nights| in | Lonesome DG Dove,| | Lonesome Dove.
