• Song:

    The Cowboys Song

  • Artist:

    Don Edwards

G7 and A7 can be played instead of G and A, which I'm pretty sure is how he
plays it. He also throws in a lot of Xsus chords intermitantly throughout
the song, along with a sort of Travis style finger picking. Enjoy!

Don Edwards - The Cowboy's Song

Intro: C G F F C G C

C (x32010@1)                      
Pushin horns weren't easy 
         F (133211@1)             Clike (x32010@1)the movie says it was
CI (x32010@1)don't remember dance hall girls 
   GOr (320003@1)hotel rooms with rugs 
           CYou (x32010@1)worked hot and tired and nasty
          F (133211@1)             CRode (x32010@1)your pony's head too low 
                        GAnd (320003@1)all them nights you couldn't sleep
      FCause (133211@1)it was too damn cold 
           C (x32010@1)         G (320003@1)          CAnd (x32010@1)we sing Strawberry Roan, Little Joe
 
CLike (x32010@1)the time we hit the river 
        F (133211@1)              CAnd (x32010@1)the rain begun to fall 
CThe (x32010@1)water risin' so damn fast
     GWe (320003@1)thought it'd drown us all 
       CNow (x32010@1)we lost a lot of steers that day 
    F (133211@1)                CAnd (x32010@1)four or five good mounts 
                           GBut (320003@1)when all the boys rode into camp
FWe (133211@1)knew that's what counts 
            C (x32010@1)           G (320003@1)           CAnd (x32010@1)we sang, yippie ti yi yay, Amazing Grace
 
COr (x32010@1)the night they broke behind us 
         F (133211@1)              CAnd (x32010@1)they took us by surprise 
CI (x32010@1)whistled out to Bonner 
          GI (320003@1)saw the terror in his eyes
       CAnd (x32010@1)he rode for all his horse would ride 
      F (133211@1)               CAnd (x32010@1)I know he done his best 
                     GBut (320003@1)he crossed over Jordan
       FRidin' (133211@1)Dunny to his death 
            C (x32010@1)                 G (320003@1)                   CAnd (x32010@1)we sang, Bringing in the Sheaves and The Rugged Cross
