VERSE 1
E                                       G#
strolling across the pastures and beyond
A                       B
one ol cowboy sings his song
E                                 G#
through the ashes clouds and grain
A                               B
hear the lonely whistle of that train

CHORUS
A                               E
faded postcards and the memories
        B                            E
all the telegrams that these old eyes can read
A                       E
wild horses in the full moon tides

B
what a lovely ride
A
for a hawk that glides
              E
what a lovely ride

VERSE 2
south dakota summer rains
cool the buffalo out on the plains
and as he rides into the night
the silhouettes are dancing by the firelight

CHORUS


VERSE 3
well his work is never done
and he rises each day with the timing of the sun
its getting harder now to ride
but his body keeps on moving
and like a hawk he glides

CHORUS
