I did the italian version...here's the english one! it should be ok...
(at each strum try to mute the string with your palm...i think it sounds better...)

  The sun is sinking in the west
  The cattle go down to the stream
  The redwing settles in the nest
  It's time for a cowboy to dream (spoken)


C                     F
Purple light in the canyons
            C          G7
That's where I long to be

C                    F
With my three good companions
     C          G7       C
Just my rifle, pony and me


C               F
Gonna hang my sombrero
        C          G7
On the limb of a tree

       C                  F
Comin' home, sweetheart darlin'
         C      G7       C
Just my rifle, pony and me


C                   F
Whippoorwill in the willow
        C         G7
Sings a sweet melody

C            F
Ridin' to Amarillo
         C      G7       C
Just my rifle, pony and me.


C                   F
No more cows to be ropin'
       C               G7
No more strays will I see

         C                F
Round the bend she'll be waitin'
        C      G7       C
For my rifle, pony and me
        C         G7       C
For my rifle, my pony and me.

Thanks! Have Fun!!
