My Rifle My Pony And Me
*****THE NUMBERS ARE HARP TABS*****
The sun is sink-ing in the west
-1 -2” -1 -2 -1 -2 -3 4
The cat-tle go down to the stream
-3 -4 -3 -2 -3 -2 -1 -2
The red-wing set-tles in the nest
-1 -2 -1 -2 -1 -2 -3 -4
It's time for a cow-boy to dream
-3 -4 -3 -3 -3 -2 -1 -2

Just my rif-le, po-ny and me
-6 6 -7 -7 -6 6 5 6
Gonna hang my sombrero
On the limb of a tree
Coming home sweet my darling
Just my rifle, pony and me
Whippoorwill in the willow
Sings a sweet melody
Riding to Amarillo
Just my rifle, pony and me
No more cows to be ropin'
No more strays will I see
'Round the bend she’ll be waitin’
For my rifle, pony and me
For my rifle, my pony and me.
