Me and [G] my uncle went [Em] riding down South [G] Colorado,
over the [Em] Texas bound.
We stopped [G] over in [Em] Santa Fe,
that's [G] the end of point,
just [A] about half way.
_ [Em] Hey, you know [B] it was the hardest [Em] part of the day.
_ _ [Em] _ _ And I [G] took the horse head up [Em] to the stall,
_ [G] went to the barroom,
ordered a [Em] drink for all.
Three days in [G] Salem,
you know my [Em] body hurt.
_ [G] It been summer.
I took [A] off my shirt,
_ [Em] and I tried to [B] wash off some of that [Em] dusty dirt. _ _ _ _
West [F#] Texas [G] cowboys,
_ [Em] there's all around.
We're [G] liquor and money,
they [Em] load it down.
So [G] soon after payday,
you know [Em] it seemed strange.
_ [G] You and my uncle,
he started [A] playing a game.
_ [Em] There's a hollow shack in the winter taking aim.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _

_ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _
Mugs [G] start winning,
the cowboys got some. _
One of them call in,
me and two [Em] more, _
accusing [G] the cheater,
oh no, it [Em] couldn't be. _
Well I [G] know my uncle,
he's an [A] honest mate.
_ [Em] There's a hundred [B] sons,
there's a dead [E] man in the beat. _
[Em] _ _ _ _ One [G] of them cowboys,
he [Em] starts to draw,
and I [G] shot him down, love.
He [Em] never saw,
_ [G] shot me another.
I said he [Em] won't go,
_ give [G] me confusion, _
when does [A] that go?
_ [Em] Here we are,
[B] tailored down to [Em] Mexico. _ _ _ _ _
[G] You know I love those cowboys,
_ [Em] I let it go.
_ Love my [G] uncle,
God [Em] rest his soul.
[G] _ Talk to you good, love.
You taught it all I know,
_ taught it so well.
Well I grow [A] that nose,
_ [Em] and left it dead
[B] out there by the side [Em] of the road.
