[E]
[B] [E]
[B] Goodbye, old paint, [E] I'm leaving Cheyenne.
[B] Goodbye, old paint, [E] I'm leaving Cheyenne.
Leaving [A] Cheyenne, bound for Montan.
[E] Goodbye, old paint, [B] I'm leaving [E] Cheyenne.
[Am] [N] Another classic Western tune, Goodbye, Old Paint, I'm Leaving Cheyenne.
Not to be confused with I Ride an Old Paint, [G] although sometimes they're medleyed together.
But it's definitely a different song, and definitely [C#] multiple different songs.
So, I have a lesson I've put together [G] at Totally Guitars, as part of the Target program there,
taking a short [C#] look at a couple different versions [G] of this.
It comes with words, chords, tablature to the couple of little fills.
Now, we talk about [E] a version in the key of E, like I just played there,
where the fill was done on an accordion,
[B] [E] [Em] similar to the way Johnny Bond did it.
You can see that video right here on YouTube.
Now, we also [N] take a look at the way Andy Parker and the [G] Plainsmen did it,
[D] [G] with the fill played a little bit differently, and then a completely different melody.
My foot's in the stirrup, [Em] the reins in my hand.
[D] Morning, [Am] young lady, [G] my horses won't stand.
[D] Goodbye, [Am] old paint, [G] I'm leaving Cheyenne.
[C#] Anyway, so, a couple of different takes on this fun song, Goodbye, Old Paint,
available now at [F] Totally Guitars.
We have also lots of free [C#] songs there, and the TG Free Lessons channel here at YouTube [G] has most of them,
if not all of them, maybe by now.
But, in the process of putting together a lot of old Western classics,
and the latest addition to them is this version of Goodbye, well, this pair of versions of Goodbye, Old Paint.
So, if [B] you can play a [E] B7 chord, and an E chord, [A] and an A chord, [E] and E7,
[Em] you can play one version.
If you can play G, [D] D7, [Em] [C] G7, and [G] C, [A] oh, and E minor, you can play the other version.
That's what's kind of cool, [N] is a completely different melody, different chord progression.
So, anyway, come check them out when you can, but in the [B] meantime,
you can practice the B7 with [C#m] a quick 3-4 strum, where I'm [B] alternating the bass between the 5th string,
and then moving my 2nd finger down to the 6th string, [F#] it's the 2nd [B] fret.
[E] And this is very typical of a lot of cowboy tunes, [B] quick 3-4 strumming.
1-2-3, 1-2 [E]-3, 1-2-3, 1-2-3.
[B] So, that's a [A] good thing to start with [G] before you even head into the lesson, especially if you're [N] a beginner.
Get used to hitting individual bass notes on the first [E] beat of a measure of 3.
1-2-3, and bass, down, down, up.
[G] That's all you need to play lots of cowboy tunes, and then those couple of chords, E, B7, A, and E7 for the E version.
So, [G#] anyway, come check us out at Totally Guitars.
A lot of cool songs, and a lot of really fun cowboy songs are up and live now.
