D                               C
Come all you young cowboys and listen to me
     G                                         D
And don't waste your life on that old hanging tree
D                               C
And don't think that size ever makes man small
     G                        D
You find out it's nothing at all
D                             C
They know a tension when the old words are said
G                                          D
Don't cheat in poker and don't lose your head
D                            C
Lost cowboys are human and bullets kill dead
 G                          D
Six guns don't make a man tall

Makes a man feel proud

D                             C
Do a honest days work for the money you spend
    G                                     D
Be fast with the ladies and slow with the men
   D                        C
Be kind to your horses and true to your friends
     G                        D
And treat every mother's son fair
 D                           C
Don't stay in town late on a Saturday night
 G                                 D
Don't let no one tease you into a fight
 D
Because when they're saddled with guns
             C
There ain't nobody right
        G                        D
It's a short trail that leads to nowhere
