[Intro]
Em G Em G
[Verse 1]
Em
A lone cowboy went riding
G
Across the desert plain
Em
All at once around him
G
He saw his world had aged
[Chorus]
C
A lone cowboy went riding
Am
Across the desert plain
C
We knew his face
Am Em
But did not know his name
[Verse 2]
Em
From town to town he wanders
G
With a pistol by his side
Em
And his aim will never falter
G
Not until the day he dies
[Chorus]
C
A Lone cowboy went riding
Am
Across the Oklahoma plain
C
We knew his face
Am Em
But no one knew his name
[Yodeling]
G Em C Am Em
[Verse 3]
Em
Some say it was the devil
G
That took him when he died
Em
Some say he's watching over
G
All his cattle in the sky
[Chorus]
C
The last cowboy went riding
Am
Through the colorado plain
C
We all knew his face
Am Em
But all forgot his name
[Yodeling]
G Em C Am Em C Am Em
