C                   F              C
Cowboys and outlaws and long shiny rails
C                             D7           G7
Was the background setting of grandpappy's tales
C                  F             C
Places like Tucson and old Santa Fe
C                G7           C
Cheyenne Wyomin' during Rodeo Days
C                       F              C
I'd sit there for hours perched on his knee
C                          D7           G7
To ride just as far as his memory could see
C                          F         C

The one Jesse James and some things that we did
  F                       C           Am
I knew them well son just like my own name
G7                               C
Billy and Jesse me and we robbed trains
C                          F          C
But a boy don't stay seven all of his life
C                              D7              G7
And he starts to wonder what's true and what's lies
C                              F               C
Still respect makes him listen to an old man's refrain

C                         D7             G7
Except for two cowboys no one else could see
C                               F             C
