Lyr/Chords Req: Rose of Cimarron

I'll probably get some flack for this, but I want the words, and preferably the chords to Rose of Cimarron, by Poco.

I was doing what a chap does best this morning, pressing my shirts, and I had this old tape by Poco playing on the Brixton Briefcase. I used to hear Rose of Cimarron played on Radio Caroline (Pirate radio, the original and best) in the '70's, and I came by the tape soon after.

The words are mostly unintelligable, and the audible ones sound pretty moronic, but one has to get these things right, right? I know it'd be considered down the line Country now, but take away the pedal steel, and trowel on a thick layer of fiddle & box and I think it'll rock.

I've tried Harmony Central, to no avail. Any ideas, my friends?

Would you settle for the Emmylou Harris version. Do the alphabetical thing for H and scroll down on Emmylou's songs.....Chords and words both there.
