Verse 1:

 D                  *       G
About the time that I came around

           D                     *           G
He'd grown tired, his health was headed southbound

            D               D/C#
He was slow climbing in the saddle

    Bm          A           Em
But once he was up he could fly

               A
Lord, he could fly

Verse 2:

           D             *          G
He told me stories 'bout California gold

             D              *          G
Working with Shorty in that West Texas cold

       D               D/C#
He was rough as a cop, tougher than nails

    Bm              A                 Em
But when he talked about her he would cry

             A
Oh, how he'd cry

Chorus:

      G              Bm         A              D
And I learned how to rope and I learned how to pray

        G             Bm              A
And how actions speak louder than any words you may say

    G            Bm                A           D
And like bustin' broncs, I've hung on for dear life

   G               Bm      A
To everything that he ever said

        Em
Oh, and though he's long gone

    A                          D   *   G
I'm still out here ridin' with Red

Interlude:
D  *  G

Verse 2:

        D                *             G
I never liked or learned too much from school

                 D           *              G
He taught me the hard knocks and the golden rule

       D            D/C#
How to chew, hot to spit

     Bm          A                Em
Work hard, never quit, he gave me money

                           A
So I could spend it on the girls

Chorus:

      G              Bm         A              D
And I learned how to rope and I learned how to pray

        G             Bm              A
And how actions speak louder than any words you may say

    G            Bm                A           D
And like bustin' broncs, I've hung on for dear life

   G               Bm      A
To everything that he ever said

        Em
Oh, and though he's long gone

    A                          G   Bm   A
I'm still out here ridin' with Red

Interlude:
G  Bm  A

Chorus 2:

      G              Bm         A              D
And I learned how to rope and I learned how to pray

        G             Bm              A
And how actions speak louder than any words you may say

    G            Bm                A           D
And like bustin' broncs, I've hung on for dear life

   G               Bm      A
To everything that he ever said

          Em                A
I'll keep singin' his song

       Em               A
So his memory lives on

        Em
Oh, and though he's long gone

    A                          G   D   A
I'm still out here ridin' with Red

            Em   D   A
Ridin' with Red
