Johnny Cash – The Greatest Cowboy Of Them All (Guitar)

       E             E
I have always had my heroes

     A              E
I've loved a lot of legends

     E         A               B7      B7
Many men in my mind are riding tall

       A           A
But my cowboy hero hats off

       D              A      A
To the man who rode a donkey

E         A        E      B7      E      E
 He's the greatest cowboy of them all

         E              E
He loves all his little doggies

          A                E
He speaks to them kind and gently

          E           A             B7      B7
And he'll lift up any maverick that falls

        A                 A
He sees every stray that scatters

              D             A      A
Like it's the only one that matters

E         A        E      B7      E      E
 He's the greatest cowboy of them all

        A             A
Once he rode into the sunset

    D              A
But some returning sunrise

      A               A             A      A
He'll call up all the riders in the sky

        A             A
I gotta get my roll together

        D              A
Gettin' ready for that sunrise

     D                  A             E      E
That winds up where old cowboys never die

    E                 E
The trail he rides is narrow

          A                 E
But it's straighter than an arrow

    E                  A                  B7      B7
And he rides point for all the great and small

        A                   A
He will take us through the wire

  D                    A      A
Onto that plain that's higher

E         A        E      B7      E      E
 He's the greatest cowboy of them all

        A             A
Once he rode into the sunset

    D              A
But some returning sunrise

      A               A             A      A
He'll call up all the riders in the sky

        A             A
I gotta get my roll together

        D              A
Gettin' ready for that sunrise

     D                  A             E      E
That winds up where old cowboys never die

    E                 E
The trail he rides is narrow

          A                 E
But it's straighter than an arrow

    E                  A                  B7      B7
And he rides point for all the great and small

        A                   A
He will take us through the wire

  D                    A      A
Onto that plain that's higher

E         A        E      B7      E      E
 He's the greatest cowboy of them all

E         A        E      B7      E      E
 He's the greatest cowboy of them all
