        Em7   A
Never smiles
            Bm      Bm/F#
And never chatters
        C       Am7
Never quarrels
D   G   E
Or complains
          Em7  A
Grown as hard
         Bm     Bm/F#
As the Sierras
                  Bm    Bm/F#
And the Western Plains


        Bm    Bm/F#   Bm/A  Bm  Bm/F#
Come a’cow cow yicky yicky yea
        Bm    Bm/F#   Bm/A  Bm  Bm/F#
Come a’cow cow yicky yicky yea


             Em7  A
Learned to swing
          Bm     Bm/F#
A broken bottle
           C    Am7
Learned to use
     D    G     E
His fists and knife
        Em7       A
In the bar rooms
        Bm     Bm/F#
And bordellos
        Bm   Bm/F#  Bm  Bm/F#
Of his life


            D/A  Em7
He drifted down
             A       Asus4  A
Towards the borders
             D/A  Em7
The sky was dark
                A
But it did not rain
          Em7     A
Came the meanest
      Bm    Bm/F#
Pistoleros
                 Bm    Bm/F#  Bm  Bm/F#
In the Western Plains


| Em7 A | Bm | C Am7 |
| D G E | Em7 A |

| Bm Bm/F# | x3


        Em7  A
He fell in
                 Bm     Bm/F#
With these desperadoes
             C       Am7
Thieves and killers
D   G E
Every one
        Em7     A
Prizes hanging
            Bm      Bm/F#
From their saddles
            Bm   Bm/F#
With their guns


        Bm    Bm/F#   Bm/A  Bm  Bm/F#
Come a’cow cow yicky yicky yea
        Bm    Bm/F#   Bm/A  Bm  Bm/F#
Come a’cow cow yicky yicky yea


| Bm |


            Em  A
The ragged kid
        Bm
Nobody wanted
       C/G  Am
Left alone
    D/A G  E
To ramble wild
        Em    A
Now he rides
            Bm    Bm/F#
Beside the Devil
           Bm   Bm/F#
Nobody’s child


        Bm    Bm/F#   Bm/A  Bm  Bm/F#
Come a’cow cow yicky yicky yea
        Bm    Bm/F#   Bm/A  Bm  Bm/F#
Come a’cow cow yicky yicky yea
