(Play c# on the beat)[Verse 1]
E G#7 I'm riding along A E Gm7 F#m7 Singing the same old cowboy song E That's been sung a hundred times before G#7 Ain't got nothing but my name A E Gm7 And I'm the only man I know to blame F#m7 B7 E But I'm living, I'm happy and I'm free
[Chorus]
F#m7 Just listen to the wind blow G#m7 Gm7 F#m7 Let it blow, let it blow E Sand over my trail F#m7 I got my saddle on the ground G#m7 Gm7 F#m7 And that old moon he can still be found B7 Hiding in the desert sky
[Verse 2]
E G#7 I like things in life like a prairie breeze A E Gm7 F#m7 A big stout horse between my knees E Just riding along, just being me E G#7 And when I die, let me die with a dream in my mind A E Gm7 A smile on my face and no trouble behind F#m7 B7 E And no cross on my grave to show my resting place
[Chorus]
F#m7 So I can listen to the wind blow G#m7 Gm7 F#m7 Let it blow, let it blow E Sand over my trail F#m7 I got my saddle on the ground G#m7 Gm7 F#m7 And that old moon he can still be found B7 Hiding in the desert sky

[Outro]
F#m7 B Won't you bury me with my chaps on E F#m7 And my six gun strapped to my side F#m7 B7 E So I can watch the moon hiding in the desert sky F#m7 B7 E Hiding in the desert sky F#m7 B7 E Hiding in the desert sky F#m7 B7 E Hiding in the desert sky
