Which sounds rather silly but ev'ry hillbilly
DmDm G+G C majorC DmDm G+G C majorC
Spends half his life singing that way
Verse 1:
C majorC DmDm
He was just a lavender cowboy

With only three hairs on his chest

And he rode on a filly called Daffydowndilly
G+G C majorC
The prettiest horse in the West
Verse 2:
DmDm
Ev'ry morning they went out together
G+G C majorC
While the others looked on in dismay
DmDm
'Cause he'd round up the cattle a-ridin' side-saddle
G+G C majorC DmDm G+G C majorC
Because he preferred it that way

And stole all the strawberry gin

So the posse was sent out to find him

And bring him back dead or alive

By the smell of Chanel No.5
Verse 5:
DmDm
And they found him a-lyin' unconcious

With blood running all down his chin

They found it was strawberry gin

So they shot the lavender cowboy
G+G C majorC
And said as they laid him to rest

You'll be happier now boy you can't be a cowboy
G+G C majorC
