Key:A
Capo:2nd fret
[Intro]
| G | G |
[Verse 1]
G C G
The cowboy's lady is crying tonight
G C D
Because the cowboy is out on the range
G C G
Running and rambling and chasing some stray
G A7 D
And good cowboys don't ever change
D G
I tried to hold him in the home corral
G D G
But the grasses were greener outside
D G
So I'm going to sit here in front of this door
C G
And I've loaded up my cowboy's forty-four
C G C
When the smoke clears there'll be a new brand on his eyes
G D G G7
This is my cowboy's last ride
[Chorus]
C G G
Oh-oh-oh I hate to see him go
C D
But I won't be staying home crying
C G C
I-I-I I hate to watch him die
G D G G
But this is my cowboy's last ride
[Verse 2]
G C G
Cowboy remembers the old trails we rode
G C D
And he's back in the saddle tonight
G C G
This time I'm letting the home fires burn out
G A7 D
And I'm leaving when I blow out his light
D G
Because I still remember good watering holes
G D G
And the places that are open and wide
D G
And I have decided he won't put me down
C G
A filly should be free for horsing around
C G C
And I will no longer be hobbled and tied
G D G G7
This is my cowboy's last ride
[Chorus]
C G G
Oh-oh-oh I hate to see him go
C D
But I won't be staying home crying
C G C
I-I-I I hate to watch him die
G D G C
But this is my cowboy's last ride
G D G
This is my cowboy's last ride
