Aaron Watson July in Cheyenne (Song For Lane’s Momma) From “Real Good Time” Tabbed by thatChadMiller (Twitter) He plays this capo 4, but I think it works better for one guitar playing on capo 2. To play capo four, The D is a C and so on… To play it with no capo, the D is an E and so on… *Use a clamp capo on 2 and leave the E string open. ADGBE will be capo 2 with the top E left open, so you’re playing in D position (resembling playing in drop D tuning).* (One other note: Play the high E string open for that hammer-on for the Bm) Intro tab (relative to capo) e|------------2----| B|------------3----| G|------------2----| D|------0-----0----| A|--0-2---2---0----| E|----------0------| Intro D Bm In the rain and the mud in July in Cheyenne A G They had to carry away that brave young man D Bm A little part of every heart of every rodeo fan A G Died there in the rain and the mud in July in Cheyenne Verse 1 D Bm Lookin' back it doesn't seem so long ago A G He was bigger than life, God rest his soul D Bm Why he died that day is hard to understand A G Right there in the rain and the mud in July in Cheyenne Chorus A G So tip your hat to the cowboy every once in a while D Bm And take time to remember that cowboy's smile A G A little part of every heart of every rodeo fan D Bm A Died there in the rain and the mud in July in Cheyenne Instrumental (over verse chords) Verse 2 No buckles on a shelf collecting dust Still his memory shines inside of all of us Some miss their hero, some miss their friend His mom and daddy long to see their little boy again Chorus Outro In the rain and the mud in July in Cheyenne They had to carry away that brave young man If your washed in the blood someday you'll see him again And it won't be in the rain and the mud in July in Cheyenne If you have any input or corrections, hit me up on Twitter and let me know if you have any songs you need help with.
