G5                  B5          C5                  G5 
        When evening chores are over at our ranch house on the plain 
            A5              D5          D5 
        And all I've got to do is lay around 
          G5            B5       C5                 G5 
        I saddle up my pony and ride off down the trail 
           A5         A5     D5   D5  G5 
        To watch the desert sun go down 
  

        G5               B5        C5                G5 
        Ridin' down the canyon to watch the sun go down 
          A5       A5      D5      D5         G5 
        A picture that no artist e'er could paint 
        G5                 B5            G5 
        White faced cattle lowin' on the mountian side 
        A5             A5          D5    D5 
        Hear a coyote whinin' for it's mate 
        G5                C5         D5               G5 
        Cactus plants are bloomin', sagebrush every where 
        A5                  A5        D5     D5 
        Granite spires are standin' all around 
          G5                   B5 
        I tell you folks it's heaven 
              C5               G5 
        To be ridin' down the trail 
        A5        A5     D5   D5   G5 
        When the desert sun goes down
