My Rifle, Pony and Me


1st verse A'capella


The sun is sinking in the west, the cattle go down to the stream.

The Red-wing settles in her nest, it's time for a cowboy to dream.



       C            Fmaj7           C               Fmaj7
Purple light in the canyons, that's where I long to be.

        C             Fmaj7            C      Cmaj9  G7   C
With my three good companions, just my rifle, pony   and  me.



      C          Fmaj7        C         Fmaj7
Gonna hang my sombrero on the limb of a tree.

       C               Fmaj7            C      Cmaj9    C
Comin' home sweetheart darlin', just my rifle, pony and me.



        C           Fmaj7           C         Fmaj7
Whippoorwill in the willow, sings a sweet melody.

       C     Fmaj7          C      Cmaj9  G7   C
Ridin' to Amarillo, just my rifle, pony   and  me.



        C          Fmaj7           C             Fmaj7
No more cows to be ropin', no more strays will I see.

          C              Fmaj7           C      Cmaj9    C
Round the bend she'll be waitin', for my rifle, pony and me.

       Fmaj7     Cmaj9  G7  C
For my rifle, my pony   and me.



C     = 332010  Fmaj7 = 033210  

Cmaj9 = 320010  G7    = 320001
