Am G E7 Am
Set ye down by me and hear my sad story
Am G E7
Set ye down by me and sing me a song
Am G E7 Am
For my poor head is aching and my sad heart is breaking
Am Dm E7 Am
I'm a poor cowboy that knowed he done wrong
Am G E7 Am
Send for that doctor to come n'heal up my body
Am G E7
And send for the preacher to come and pray for my soul
Am G E7 Am
For my poor head is aching and my sad heart is breaking
Am Dm E7 Am
I'm a poor cowboy and hell is my doom
Am G E7 Am
Get sixteen pretty maidens to come and carry my coffin
Am G E7
Sixteen pretty maidens to come and sing me a song
Am G E7 Am
And tell 'em to bring some o'them sweet smelling roses
Am Dm E7 Am
So they can't smell me as they tote me along
Am G E7 Am
Beat the drums slowly and play the fife lowly
Am G E7
Play the death march as ye carry me along
Am G E7 Am
Throw bunches of lilies all over my coffin
