D5              A5             G5 
Was a cowboy I knew in south Texas 
D5                  A5           G5 
His face was burnt deep by the sun  
D5              A5         G5 
Part history, part sage, part Mexican 
D5                        A5          G5 
He was there when Pancho Villa was young 
  

D5                   A5           G5 
And he'd tell you a tail of the old days 
D5                    A5        G5 
When the country was wild all around 
D5                  A5           G5 
sit out under the stars of the Milky Way 
D5                    A5       G5 
And listen while the coyotes howled and they go.. 
  

D5       A5        G5 
Poodi yip poo yip poo 
D5                A5          G5 
Poodi hoo di yip poo di yip poo 
D5       A5        G5 
Poo yip poo yip poo 
D5                 A5          G5 
Poo di hoo di yip poo di yip poo 
  

B5                         G5 
Now the Longhorns are gone and the drovers are gone 
E5                     A5 
The Comanches are gone and the out laws are gone 
E5                 D5 
Geronimo is gone and Sam Bass is gone 
G5                      A5   
And the lion is gone and the red wolf is gone

D5                      A5              G5 
Well he cursed all the roads and the oil men 
D5                 A5     G5 
And he cursed the automobile 
G5           D5          A5                 G5 
Said "this is no place for an hombre like I am  
D5                  A5              G5 
In this new world of asphault and steel" 
  

D5                       A5             G5 
Then He'd look off some place in the distance 
D5                A5        G5  
At somethin only he could see 
  

D5                        A5          G5 
He?d say "all thats left now of the old days 
D5           A5           G5 
Damned ol' coyotes and me" and they go 
  

D5       A5        G5 
Poo yip poo yip poo 
D5                A5          G5 
Poodi hoo di yip poo di yip poo 
D5       A5        G5 
Poo yip poo yip poo 
D5                 A5          G5 
Poo di hoo di yip poo di yip poo 
  

B5                          G5 
Now the Longhorns are gone and the drovers are gone  
E5                      A5 
The Comanches are gone and the outlaws are gone 
E5                 D5 
Now Quatro is gone, Stan Wantee is gone  
G5                  A5 
And the lion gone and the red wolf is gone 
  

D5           A5             G5 
One mornin they searched his adobe 
D5              A5              G5 
He disappeared without even a word 
G5         D5            A5               G5 
But that night as the moon crossed the mountains 
D5         A5          G5 
One more coyote was heard and he'd go 
  

D5       A5        G5 
Poo yip poo yip poo 
D5                A5          G5 
Poodi hoo di yip poo di yip poo 
D5       A5        G5 
Poo yip poo yip poo 
D5                 A5          G5 
Poo di hoo di yip poo di yip poo 
  

D5       A5        G5 
Poo yip poo yip poo 
D5                A5          G5 
Poodi hoo di yip poo di yip poo 
D5       A5        G5 
Poo yip poo yip poo 
D5                 A5          G5 
Poo di hoo di yip poo di yip poo
