The Last Cowboy Song

(início)

Chorus (all together):
           D
        This is the last cowboy song
                                    G
        The end of a hundred year waltz
              A
        The voices sound sad as they're singing along
                                     D
        Another piece of America is lost
Verse 1:(Waylon Jennings)
            D
        He rides the feed lots,works in a market
                                       A
        On weekend selling tobacco and beer
        He dreams of tommorrow surrounded by fences
                                                        D
        But he'll dream tonight of when fences weren't here
Verse 2:(Kris Kristofferson)
           D
        He blazed the trail with Lewis and Clark
                                                 A
        And eyeball to eyeball old Wyatt backed down
        He stood shoulder to shoulder with Travis in Texas
                                                    D
        And rode with the Seventh when Custer went down
Chorus.
Verse 3:(Willie Nelson)
           D
        Remington showed us how he looked on canvas
                                      A
        And Louis Lamour told us his tale
        Me and Johnny and Waylon and Kris sing about him
                                                   D
        And wish to God we could have ridden his trail
Verse 4:(spoken-Johnny Cash) and the three others sing the chorus.
           D
        The old chisom trail is covered in concrete
                                               G
        They truck it to market in fifty foot rigs
           A
        They roll by his graveside and don't even notice
                                               D
        Like living and dieing was all he ever did
Chorus.
