The Last Cowboy Song

Written by Ed Bruce / Ron Peterson

	  		

tabchorus
(all together): D This is the last cowboy song G The end of a hundred year waltz A The voices sound sad as they're singing along D Another piece of America is lost

Verse 1:

(Waylon Jennings) D He rides the feed lots,works in a market A On weekend selling tobacco and beer He dreams of tommorrow surrounded by fences D But he'll dream tonight of when fences weren't here

Verse 2:

(Kris Kristofferson) D He blazed the trail with Lewis and Clark A And eyeball to eyeball old Wyatt backed down He stood shoulder to shoulder with Travis in Texas D And rode with the Seventh when Custer went down
tabchorus
(all together): D This is the last cowboy song G The end of a hundred year waltz A The voices sound sad as they're singing along D Another piece of America is lost

Verse 3:

(Willie Nelson) D Remington showed us how he looked on canvas A And Louis Lamour told us his tale Me and Johnny and Waylon and Kris sing about him D And wish to God we could have ridden his trail

Verse 4:

(spoken-Johnny Cash) and the three others sing the Chorus. D The old chisom trail is covered in concrete G They truck it to market in fifty foot rigs A They roll by his graveside and don't even notice D Like living and dieing was all he ever did
tabchorus
(all together): D This is the last cowboy song G The end of a hundred year waltz A The voices sound sad as they're singing along D Another piece of America is lost
