G C
While I was out a-ridin'
G D Dsus D
The graveyard shift midnight till dawn
C G
The moon was as bright as a reading light
D C G
For a letter from an old friend back home
D
He asked me
C D G
Why do you ride for your money?
C D G
Why do you rope for short pay?
C D
You ain't gettin' nowhere
G C C/B Am
And you're losin' your share
D G
Oh, you must've gone crazy out there
G C
He said last night I ran into Jenny
G D Dsus D
They married and have a good life
C G
Oh, you sure missed the track when you never came back
, D C G
She made the perfect professional's wife
D
And she asked me
C D G
Why does he ride for his money?
C D G
Why does he rope for short pay?
C D
You ain't gettin' nowhere
G C C/B Am
And you?re losin' your share
D G
Oh, you must've gone crazy out there
C D G
They've never seen the northern lights
C D G
Never seen a hawk on the wing
C D G C C/B Am
Never seen the spring hit the Great Divide
D G
And they ain't ever heard old Camp Cookie sing
G C
Now, I read up the last of my letter
G D Dsus D
And tore of the stamp for Black Jim
C G
Little Dougie rode up to relieve me
D C G
He just looked at my letter and grinned
G
He asked me
C D G
Why do they ride for their money?
C D G
Why do they rope for short pay?
C D
They ain't gettin' nowhere
G C C/B Am
And they?re losin' their share
