🎸 Verse 1:
    E MajorE       E MajorE
I have always had my heroes
   A augmentedA       E MajorE
I've loved a lot of 🏷Legends
   E MajorE     A augmentedA        B7B7   B7B7
Many men in my mind are riding tall
    A augmentedA      A augmentedA
But my cowboy hero hats off
    D MajorD       A augmentedA   A augmentedA
To the man who rode a donkey
E MajorE     A augmentedA    E MajorE   B7B7   E MajorE   E MajorE
 He's the greatest cowboy of them all

🎸 Verse 2:
     E MajorE       E MajorE
He loves all his little doggies
     A augmentedA        E MajorE
He speaks to them kind and gently
     E MajorE      A augmentedA       B7B7   B7B7
And he'll lift up any maverick that falls
    A augmentedA         A augmentedA
He sees every stray that scatters
       D MajorD       A augmentedA   A augmentedA
Like it's the only one that matters
E MajorE     A augmentedA    E MajorE   B7B7   E MajorE   E MajorE
 He's the greatest cowboy of them all


🎸 Chorus:
    A augmentedA       A augmentedA
Once he rode into the sunset
  D MajorD       A augmentedA
But some returning sunrise
   A augmentedA        A augmentedA       A augmentedA   A augmentedA
He'll call up all the riders in the sky
    A augmentedA       A augmentedA
I gotta get my roll together
    D MajorD       A augmentedA
Gettin' ready for that sunrise
   D MajorD         A augmentedA       E MajorE   E MajorE
That winds up where old cowboys never die

🎸 Verse 3:
  E MajorE         E MajorE
The trail he rides is narrow
     A augmentedA         E MajorE
But it's straighter than an arrow
  E MajorE         A augmentedA         B7B7   B7B7
And he rides point for all the great and small
    A augmentedA          A augmentedA
He will take us through the wire
 D MajorD          A augmentedA   A augmentedA
Onto that plain that's higher
E MajorE     A augmentedA    E MajorE   B7B7   E MajorE   E MajorE
 He's the greatest cowboy of them all


🎸 Chorus:
    A augmentedA       A augmentedA
Once he rode into the sunset
  D MajorD       A augmentedA
But some returning sunrise
   A augmentedA        A augmentedA       A augmentedA   A augmentedA
He'll call up all the riders in the sky
    A augmentedA       A augmentedA
I gotta get my roll together
    D MajorD       A augmentedA
Gettin' ready for that sunrise
   D MajorD         A augmentedA       E MajorE   E MajorE
That winds up where old cowboys never die


🎸 Verse 4:
  E MajorE         E MajorE
The trail he rides is narrow
     A augmentedA         E MajorE
But it's straighter than an arrow
  E MajorE         A augmentedA         B7B7   B7B7
And he rides point for all the great and small

Onto that plain that's higher
