[Fm] I'm a [Ab] lonesome but happy, [Db] rich but I'm [Ab] broke, and [Db] the good lord knows the [Ab] reason I'm [Eb] just
a [Ab] cowpoke.
[Fm] From [Ab] Cheyenne to Douglas all [Db] the ranges [Ab] I know, cause I [Db] drift with [Fm] the wind no one cares where I go.
Oh I [Ab]
ain't got a dime in these old wore out [Ab] jeans, so [Db] I'll stop eating [Ab] steak and I'll go back to [Fm] beans.
I'll pick up a tin spot in [Db] Prescott [Ab] I know, [Db] a ride in [Ab] the Bronx in the [Fm] big rodeo.
[Fm]
[Ab] Next summer it's north if [Gb] there ain't a [Ab] big drought, and [Db] as soon as it [Fm] frosts I'll [Db] be heading back [Ab] south.
[Bb]
