1. By the way you watch the sunset I can tell 
              D5                            A5 
Soon you'll saddle up that ole strawberry roan 
A5                       E5             A5 
Bid goodbye to the goodnight loving trail 
    B5                                    E5 
And set off to blaze a new trail of your own 
   D5                                   A5 
I know you'll travel light, like you always do

2. I know you'll try to hold to higher ground 
          D5                     A5 
And stay one day ahead of the storm 
A5                                   E5                 A5 
But when a northern blows and the rain keeps pouring down 
B5                                          E5 
May you find a place to keep you safe and warm 
  D5                            A5 
They say every cowboy finds a home somewhere 
     F#5                B5               E5
