 EG#13
Well I'm ridin' along  

 A13EGm7F#m7
 Singin' the same ol' cowboy song    

 E
That's been sung a hundred times before

 G13
Ain't got nothin' but my name

 A13EGm7
And I'm the only man I know to blame

 F#m7B9E
But I'm livin' I'm happy and I'm free

 F#m7
Just listen to the wind blow

 G#m7Gm7F#m7
Let it blow let it blow     

 E
Sand over my trail

 F#m7
I got my saddle on the ground

 G#m7Gm7F#m7
And that ol' moon he can still be found     

 B7
Hidin' in the desert sky

 E
I like simple things in life

 G#13
Like a prairie breeze

 A13EGm7F#m7
good stout horse between my knees   

 E
Just bein' alone just bein' me

And when I die let me die

 G#13
With a dream in my mind

 A13EGm7
A smile on my face and no trouble behind

 F#m7
And no cross on my grave

 B9E
To show my restin' place

 F#m7
So I can listen to the wind blow

 G#m7Gm7F#m7
Let it blow let it blow     

 E
Sand over my trail

 F#m7
I got my saddle on the ground

 G#m7Gm7F#m7
And that ol' moon he can still be found     

 B7
Hidin' in the desert sky

 F#m7B9
Won't you bury me with my chaps on

 EF#m7
And my six-gun strapped to my side

 F#m7
So I can watch the moon a-hidin'

 B9E
In the desert sky

 F#m7B9E
 Hidin' in the desert sky

 F#m7B9E
 Hidin' in the desert sky

 F#m7B9G6/9F#6/9F6/9E6/9
 Hidin' in the desert sky
