C5                   F5                    C5         F5
Purple light in the canyons that's where I long to be
         C5          F5                  C5               F5 
With  my three good companions just my rifle, pony and me 
      C5       F5               C5         F5 
Gonna hang my sombrero on the limb of a tree
       C5               F5               C5      F5        C5 
Comin' home sweetheart darling just my rifle, pony and me 
                     F5              C5         F5 
With the wind in the willow sings a sweet melody 
       C5     F5             C5               F5 
Ridin' to Amarillo just my rifle, pony and me 
        C5          F5              C5             F5 
No more cows to be ropin' no more strays will I see
           C5              F5              C5      F5        C5 
Round  the bend she'll be waitin' for my rifle, pony and me
        C5         F5        C5 
For  my rifle, my pony and me
