[Verse]
Em D
I'd been ridin' fence all day
Bm Em
Way up on the summer range
Em D
Found a place to make my bed
Bm Em
As the evening shadow spread
C Em
Beyond the campfire light
C Em
Through the stillness of the night
C Em D
Came the call of the coyote's cho-ir
C D Em
And a song of the wind in the wire
[Instrumental]

Em D
As it strummed the rusted strings
Bm Em
It sang a long forgotten theme
Em D
Many moons and many suns
Bm Em
Of the real Americans
C Em
When the arrow and the bow
C Em
Stalked the range of bufallo
C Em D
And the call of the coyote's cho-ir
C D Em
And you know songs of the wind in the wire
[Instrumental]

Em D
As the ghostly baladeer
Bm Em
Hypnotized me, I could hear
Em D
Bugle calls and battle cries
Bm Em
Broken promises and lies
C Em
The spirits of the plains
C Em
Still sing their sad refrain
C Em D
And the call of the coyote's cho-ir
C D Em
And a song of the wind in the wire
C Em
The spirits of the plains
C Em
Still sing their sad refrain
C Em D
And the call of the coyote's cho-ir
C D Em
And a song of the wind in the wire
