Intro strum with the Davy Crockett-ish melody on harmonica
A-D-A-D-A-A-D-A-A-E (You have to get a feel for how many counts each chord gets-you can hear him strumming pretty easily, though, in that part).
LA RE LA
Are there any more real cowboys
RE LA
left out in these hills?
Will the fire hit the iron
MI
one more time?
LA RE LA
And will one more dusty pick-up
LA RE LA
coming rolling down the road
SIm RE MI
With a load of feed before the sun gets high?
SIm RE MI
Well i hope that working cowboy never dies
(willie sings-same chords)
Not the one who's snortin' cocaine
when the honky-tonk's all closed
but the one that prays for more rain
heaven knows
that the good feed brings the money
and the money buys the clothes
not the diamond sequins shining on TV
but the kind the working cowboy really needs
(key change to C)
DO FA DO
Are there any more country families
FA DO
Still working hand in hand
trying hard to stay together
SOL
and make a stand?
DO FA DO
Well the rows and rows and rows of houses
FA DO
come creepin' up on the land
REm FA SOL
where the cattle graze and old grey barn still stands
REm FA SOL
Are there any more real cowboys in this land?
REm FA SOL
Are there any more real cowboys in this land?
