G#
Intro :
C# F#
The sun is sinking in the west
C# F#
The cattle go down to the stream
C# F#
The redwing settles in the nest
C# F# C#
It's time for a cowboy to dream
C# F#
Purple light in the canyons
C# F#
That's where I long to be
C# F#
With my three good companions
C# A#m F#
Just my rifle, pony and me
C# F#
Gonna hang my som-brero
C# F#
On the limb of a tree
C# F#
Comin' home, sweetheart darlin'
C# F# C#
Just my rifle, pony and me
C# F#
Whippoorwill in the willow
C# F#
Sings a sweet melody
C# F#
Ridin' to Ama-rillo
C# A#m F#
Just my rifle, pony and me
C# F#
No more cows to be ropin'
C# F#
No more strays will I see
C# F#
Round the bend she'll be waitin'
C# F# C#
For my rifle, pony and me
Outro :
C# F# C#
For my rifle, my pony and me
