[Intro]
Long spoken intro monologue (01:30 minutes long)
[Verse]
Eb I ride an old paint he's on the worry side Bb Eb And I'm a saddle tramp about to cross the great divide Bb Eb Where there's grass in the coolies and water in the drawl Bb Eb And the forty pound saddle won't make us both raw
[Chorus]
Bb Eb Slow rider, slow rider move on a little more Bb Eb The sky boss is waitin' at the big ranch house door
[Verse]
Eb I can't help but missin' the daughters that I had Bb Eb One went to Denver the other went bad Bb Eb My young wife died in a poolroom fight Bb Eb But I try to keep singin' from morning till night
[Chorus]
Bb Eb Slow rider, slow rider move on a little more Bb Eb The sky boss is waitin' at the big ranch house door
[Verse]
Eb Whenever I die take my saddle from the wall Bb Eb Strap it on snuffy lead him out of the stall Bb Eb Throw me on his back and turn him toward the west Bb Eb He knows how to take me to the spot I love best
[Outro]
Bb Eb Slow rider, slow rider move on a little more Bb Eb The sky boss is waitin' at the big ranch house door (slow down during last line)
