Are There Any More Real Cowboys?  - Neil Young

Intro strum with the Davy Crockett-ish melody on harmonica
A-D-A-D-A-A-D-A-A-E   (You have to get A feel for how many counts 
each chord gets-you can hear him strumming pretty easily, though, in that part).

          A (x02220@1)  D (xx0232@1)       AAre (x02220@1)there any more real cowboys
  D (xx0232@1)          Aleft (x02220@1)out in these hills?

Will the fire hit the iron
	  Eone (022100@1)more time?
          A (x02220@1)      D (xx0232@1)   AAnd (x02220@1)will one more dusty pick-up
        A (x02220@1)     D (xx0232@1)Acoming (x02220@1)rolling down the road 
        Bm (x24432@1)    D (xx0232@1)	         EWith (022100@1)a load of feed before the sun gets high?
        Bm (x24432@1)              D (xx0232@1)          EWell (022100@1)i hope that working cowboy never dies

(willie sings-same chords)

Not the one who's snortin' cocaine
when the honky-tonk's all closed
but the one that prays for more rain
heaven knows
that the good feed brings the money
and the money buys the clothes
not the diamond sequins shining on TV
but the kind the working cowboy really needs

(key change to C)
           C (x32010@1)      F (133211@1)     CAre (x32010@1)there any more country families
       F (133211@1)             CStill (x32010@1)working hand in hand

trying hard to stay together
             Gand (320003@1)make a stand?
          C (x32010@1)      F (133211@1)              CWell (x32010@1)the rows and rows and rows of houses
        F (133211@1)              Ccome (x32010@1)creepin' up on the land
           Dm (xx0231@1)            F (133211@1)                   Gwhere (320003@1)the cattle graze and old grey barn still stands
          Dm (xx0231@1)           F (133211@1)             GAre (320003@1)there any more real cowboys in this land?
          Dm (xx0231@1)           F (133211@1)             GAre (320003@1)there any more real cowboys in this land?

Well, I don't feel 100% about this one, but see what you think.  
It's a decent approximation.
