Well  Im ridin along singing that same ol' cowboy song 
                                                                  E5 
Thats been sung a hundred time before 
                                                     G#5  
Aint got nothin to  my name 
          A5                       E5                                  G5 
And Im the only man I know to blame 
                 F#5  B5                     E5 
But Im livin Im    happy and Im free 
 
Chorus 
          F#5 
Just listen to the wind blow 
         G#5                        G5  F#5 
Let it blow,     let it blow 
                                E5 
Sand over my trail 
                  F#5 
I got my saddle on the ground 
                     G#5                                           G5  F#5 
And that ol'moon he can still be found 
                                             B5 
Hidin in the desert sky 
 
I like the simple things in life like a prairie breeze 

  a good stout horse between my knees 

Just being alone just being me 

And when I die let me die with a dream in my  mind 

A smile on my  face and no troubles behind 

And no cross on my grave to show my restin place 
 
Chorus 
F#5                                         B5 
Wont you  bury me with my chaps on 
                E5                                          F#5 
and my six gun strapped to my side  
                                     F#5                      B5        E5 
So I can watch the moon hidin in the desert sky 
F#5         B5            E5 
Hidn in the desert   sky                   (3x )    (ending) 
F#5            B5         G5  F#5 F5 E5 
Hidin in the desert sky
