_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] Me and my uncle went right down _
South [E] Colorado, west [Em] Texas town
We stopped over in Center Bay
_ That's a family farm just about [A] half way
And [Em] you [B] know it was the hottest part of [Em] the day
_ _ _ _ _ [G] And I took the horses up to [Em] the stock
_ Went [G] to the bar room, all the [Em] drinks were off
Three [G] days in the South, you know my [Em] body hurt
_ [E] It been some after [A]-coffee sure
_ [Em] And I tried [B] to wash off some of that dusty [Em] dirt _ _
_ _ [G] West Texas town boys, there's [Em] all around
With [G] liquor and money, but they're [E] slow to down
_ Soon after [G] payday, though it seems [Em] strange
_ You know my uncle, he's such a friendly [A] game
_ _ [Em] Hey, hello, Jack, [B] in the wind it takes a [Em] hand
_ _ [B] _ _ [Em] _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _

[B] _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _
My uncle [G] started winning, the cowboys got [Em] slow
_ Wounded [D] and called in, then T [Em]-More
_ Fusing and cheating, [G] well I'm not, [Em] it just couldn't be
_ I know [G] my uncle, he's as honest [A] as me
_ _ [Em] Hey, and I'm as honest as a gentleman can be
_ _ _ _ One [G] of them [Em] cowboys, he stopped the door
And [G] shot him down low, well he [B] never saw
_ [G] Shot me another, well I damn it he [Em] won't go
_ [G] In the confusion, my uncle [A] tried to go
_ [Em] Hey, and we hot [A#]-tailed him down to [Em] Mexico
And _ [G] _ [B] all _ [E] _ [G] of them cowboys, all of their gold
_ [D] Lord, my [Em] uncle, he [E] got restless, so
_ He taught [G] me good love, well he taught me all [Em] I know
_ Taught [G] me so well, well I grabbed [A] that gold
_ [Em] And I left his dead [B] ass there by the side of the [Em] road
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [A] _

_ _ _ _ _ _ Well I dumped that weeping [Em] widow, I cried, cried, cried
Thought the clouds had a [B] cover of a clear [E] blue sky
[A] She cried for that woman, [D] on that bloody big river
[A] And I'm gonna [C#m] survive here [E] till I die
_ [A] Well I met her accidentally in St.
Paul in the snow
Dormant of every time I heard her growl that [E] southern cry
[A] Then I heard my dream was back down the [D] street, the boys came down and [E] fought
And I followed the [B] weeping ram, [A] way down the street _
Talked that weeping widow, had her cry, cry, cry
[E]
Thought the clouds had a cover [B] of a clear [E] blue sky
[A]
She cried for that [D] woman, on that bloody big river
[F#]
And I'm gonna survive here [A] till I die

_ _ [F#] _ _ _ [A] _ So I went down to St.
Louis, [E] later on down the river _
Read her such opinion, [B] but she's [E] gone, boy, she's gone
[A]
Well I found a man, just how much, who just walked [D] up and left
[F#m] Raised a few eyebrows, [E] and he's gone, gone, [A] gone _ _
Talked that weeping widow, had her cry, cry, cry
Thought the clouds had a cover [F#] of a clear blue [E] sky
[A]
