Intro: C5         F5         G5 

C5        F5         G5        F5         C5 

C5          F5        G5           C5 
Once long ago a cowboy you were 
     C5              G5       F5 (ascending bass - G5 A5 B5 ) 
With fire and courage inside 
       C5          F5                G5             C5         
You'd sing a loud yodel on your mustering journey 
       C5          G5            F5   G5  (asc  bass - G5 A5 B5 ) 
With a gun and a swag at your side. 
 
Chorus 

 
    C5                 F5            G5 
So sit there and smile old man 
     C5                F5            G5 
And rattle and tell me your day 
         C5            F5 
You've slept in too long  
           C5               G5 
Cause your rum was too strong 
F5         C5             G5         
Did you have a good Sunday 
      F5             G5                  A5 
Or are they all just the same 
     C5              G5                    C5 
Life now only leaves you to blame 
 
For you'd ride and you'd settle under stars full of envy 

For they wish they could fall in your swaggy below 

But then they stare up and wonder why 

They fell underneath the sky 

Just like you, a forgotten cowboy. 
 
Chorus 
 

    C5                 F5            G5 
So sit there and smile old man 
     C5                F5            G5 
And rattle and tell me your day 
         C5            F5 
You've slept in too long  
           C5               G5 
Cause your rum was too strong 
F5         C5             G5         
Did you have a good Sunday 
      F5             G5                  A5 
Or are they all just the same 
     C5              G5                    C5 
Life now only leaves you to blame 
 
Chorus 

 
    C5                 F5            G5 
So sit there and smile old man 
     C5                F5            G5 
And rattle and tell me your day 
         C5            F5 
You've slept in too long  
           C5               G5 
Cause your rum was too strong 
F5         C5             G5         
Did you have a good Sunday 
      F5             G5                  A5 
Or are they all just the same 
     C5              G5                    C5 
Life now only leaves you to blame 
 
 
F5         C5             G5

Or are they all just the same 
     C5              G5                    C5 
Life now only leaves you to blame
