[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Well, I'm riding [G#] the bulldog, _ _ [A] singing the same [E] old cowboy [Em] song [F#m] _ that's been sung a hundred times [E] before. _ _ _ _
Ain't got nothing but [G#] my name, _ [A] and I'm the only [E] man I know [A#] to blame.
But [F#m] I'm living, _ I'm happy, and [E] I'm free. _ _ _
[C#m] Just listen [F#m] to the wind _ blow, _ let [G#m] it blow, let it blow.
[A#] _ [A] _ _ _ Sand over _ [Em] my trail, [E] _ I _ _ [F#m] got my saddle _ on the ground, _ and [G#m] that old moon, he can still [Gm] be found.
[F#m] _ _ I never dare _ to look at the sky.
[F#] _ [F#m] _
I like the [E] rains and light [G#] like a prairie [A] breeze.
A good sky [E] holds me, my [Gm] [F#m] knees _ just beat along, just [E] be in me. _ _ _ _
_ [C#m] And when I die, let me die with a [G#] dream in my mind.
A [A] smile on my face [E] and no troubles [A#] behind, [A] and no cross on my grave [D#] to show my [E] rest in place. _ _
Just listen [F#m] to the wind _ blow, _ [G#m] let it blow, _ let it blow.
[Gm] _ [F#m] _ _ _ Sand over [E] my trail, _ _ _ I [F#m] got my saddle [A] on _ _ _ the ground, and [G#m] that old moon, he can still [Gm] be [F#m] found.
_ Hiding in the _ _ [D#] desert sky.
