Cowboy Song
A E F#m E D
I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail
A E F#m E D
a STARRY night, the CAMPFIRE light
A E F#m E D
The coyote call, and the howling winds wail
A E F#m E D
So I'll ride out to the old sundown
A E F#m E D
I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail
A E F#m E D
Lord, I'm just thinking about a certain female
A E F#m E D
The nights we spent together riding on the RANGE
A E F#m E D
Looking back it seems so strange
D C#m7
Roll me over and turn me around
Bm7 A
Let me keep spinning till I hit the ground
D C#m7
Roll me over and let me go
Bm7 A
Riding in the rodeo
A E F#m E D
I was took in Texas I did not know her name
A E F#m E D
Lord, all these southern girls seem the same
A E F#m E D
Down below the border in a town in Mexico
A E F#m E D
I got my job busting broncs for the rodeo
D C#m7
Roll me over and turn me around
Bm7 A
Let me keep spinning till I hit the ground
D C#m7
Roll me over and let me go
Bm7 A
Running free with the buffalo
Here I go

Just let me go
Riding in the rodeo
Roll me over and turn me around
Let me keep spinning till i hit the ground
Roll me over and let me go
Riding in the rodeo
Roll me over and set me free
The cowboy's life is the life for me

version 3
Tuning: One half step down (Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-eb)
This is not easy to transcribe because there are no clear chords in the
chorus: the guitars play melody/harmony-lines that together only suggest a
certain chord but do not define it explicitly. The second "chord" in the
chorus is a good example: the bass plays the note c# and the guitars put c#
and e on top of that. This may be an A/C# on the one hand or (adding an
imaginary g#) a C#m. The nature of the chords in the closing riff of the
chorus (bass plays B – A- F# - E – A) is similarly undefined.
Anyway, for this chord version I imagined someone who wants to provide a
basic accompaniment on an acoustic guitar for a singer (maybe in a starry
night by the campfire light ...). For the sake of playability I made some
decisions that may of course be interpreted differently – to me they sound
fine. I went for a C#m (which might as well be an A/C#, of course) and hints
of "acoustic power chords" for the closing riff in the chorus. Enjoy!

I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail
A starry night, a campfire light
The coyote call, the howling winds wail
So I ride out to the old sundown
I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail
Lord, Im just thinking about a certain female
The nights we spent together riding on the range
Looking back it seems so strange
Roll me over and turn me around
Let me keep spinning till I hit the ground
Roll me over and let me go
Running free with the buffalo
I was took in texas I did not know her name
Lord, all these southern girls seem the same
Down below the border in a town in mexico
I got my job busting broncs for the rodeo
Roll me over and turn me around
Let me keep spinning till I hit the ground
Roll me over and let me go
Riding in the rodeo
Roll me over and set me free
The cowboys life is the life for me

I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail
A starry night, a campfire light
The coyote call, the howling winds wail
So I ride out to the old sundown
I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail
Lord, Im just thinking about a certain female
The nights we spent together riding on the range
Looking back it seems so strange
Roll me over and turn me around
Let me keep spinning till I hit the ground
Roll me over and let me go
Running free with the buffalo
I was took in texas I did not know her name
Lord, all these southern girls seem the same
Down below the border in a town in mexico
I got my job busting broncs for the rodeo
Roll me over and turn me around
Let me keep spinning till I hit the ground
Roll me over and let me go
Riding in the rodeo
Roll me over and set me free
The cowboys life is the life for me
