The Yellow Bandana
Recorded by Faron Young 
written by Steve Karliski, Larry Kolber, Al Gordoni
[3/4 time]
C           G7                   C     

This is the story of a Yellow Bandana
  Am             Dm            G7             C     
A handsome young soldier and a girl named Roseanna

C                                 G7      
Away out west in the wilds of New Mexico
                                     C            
There lived a girl and a soldier who loved her so
                                         G7          
And every night beneath the full crimson moon above
                                              C          
This brave young soldier would pledge her his love  

                Dm       G7        C     
And he gave Roseanna his Yellow Bandana
   Am          Dm             G7            C    
To wear in her hair till he's with her once more
            Dm       G7        C     
He gave Roseanna his Yellow Bandana
Am          Dm       G7          C   
Mounted his pony and rode off to war

                                        G7               
His orders came and he had to ride west again
                                       C
Seems that Apaches were causing unrest again
                                 G7
He kissed Roseanna goodbye as he rode away
                                      C
Promising this time he'd come back to stay 

Repeat #3
                                           G7
The war was over and he came back home and found
                                              C
That the Apaches had burned the whole village down
                                   G7
And beneath the tree where he last kissed Roseanna
                                 C
Draped on a cross was his Yellow Bandana

Repeat #3

Tag:
            Dm       G7        C     
He gave Roseanna his Yellow Bandana
   Am          Dm             G7            C    
To wear in her hair till he's with her once more
