I read it in the paper just about a week ago
A             A7                G           D
It was on the back page and not many people know
                               G
Boy it made me feel bad when I picked it up and read

Oh we rode the dusty trails together
       G        B7              E7   A7
At the Saturday morning picture show
    G                                D                G
The dusty trails are gone now but it hurts to hear it said

We believed in everything that Pinto ever did
                                  G
Will our kids have a hero half as brave or half as strong

If he outran the wind itself - we never were surprised
                                G
In my childhood memories though boys grow into men
D         G             D
