(Intro)
Amaj7 Dmaj7 Amaj7 Dmaj7

(Verse 1)
Amaj7                 Dmaj7
In the corner of a dark barroom
Amaj7                Dmaj7
Sat an old cowboy singing western tunes
Amaj7                    Dmaj7
Singing songs that he learned as a child
Amaj7                Dmaj7                   Amaj7    Dmaj7
All about the West back when it was wild
Amaj7                   Dmaj7
He said he came from down Texas way
    Amaj7                     Dmaj7
The cowboys were tough the women the same way
Amaj7                Dmaj7
Said he was a star back in '31
     Amaj7
When Hollywood liked him
         Dmaj7                   Amaj7    Dmaj7
For some songs that he had done

(Chorus)
Amaj7                   Dmaj7      Amaj7     Dmaj7
He's the last of the singing cowboys
Dmaj7                Amaj7
Singing songs of desperation and joy
         Bm              Amaj7    Dmaj7          Amaj7
Yippie-I-Oh......Yippie-I-Ay.......Yippie-I-Ay


(Verse 2)
Amaj7                      Dmaj7
He took a break just to chug him down some beer
Amaj7
C'mon folks now holler out
    Dmaj7
The songs you'd like to hear
   Amaj7               Dmaj7
And if I know one I know a million or two
Amaj7
I'm not just up here playing for me
       Dmaj7              Amaj7    Dmaj7
This is all done for you
Amaj7                          Dmaj7
And then he bragged of the stetson hat that he wore
Amaj7                          Dmaj7
Said it was the finest made since the war
Amaj7                           Dmaj7
And I won this silver buckle ridin' on a cow
Amaj7                     Dmaj7                      Amaj7
As he laughed he said I bet you're wonderin' how

(Chorus)
 Amaj7                        Dmaj7      Amaj7
'Cause I'm the last of the singing cowboys
Dmaj7               Amaj7
Singing songs of desperation and joy
         Bm              Amaj7    Dmaj7         Amaj7    Dmaj7
Yippie-I-Oh......Yippie-I-Ay.......Yippie-I-Ay


(Instrumental break)
Amaj7 Dmaj7 Amaj7 Dmaj7

(Verse 3)
Amaj7                     Dmaj7
And after three hours or maybe more
Amaj7                         Dmaj7
A lady grabbed his arm and showed him to the door
Amaj7                      Dmaj7
The bartender said he's blind you see
Amaj7
Don't tell him the only audience
  Dmaj7                Amaj7
He had was you and me


(Chorus)
 Amaj7                         Dmaj7      Amaj7
'Cause he's the last of the singing cowboys
Dmaj7               Amaj7
Singing songs of desperation and joy
         Bm              Amaj7    Dmaj7         Amaj7    Dmaj7
Yippie-I-Oh......Yippie-I-Ay.......Yippie-I-Ay
        Amaj7
Yippie-I-Ay
