"t"title A LONESOME COWBOY

[c]i am a lonesome cowboy
[f]riding down the trail
i'm[g]going on to tombstone
to get [c]my brother out of jail.

[f]yippy hi ay ,[c] yippy hi oh,[g] i'm riding to get my brother out of[c] jail

[c]the sheriff said he robbed a store
but i [f]think he was framed,
[g]by that mean sun of a gun
who[c]locked him in his cell.

[f]yippy hi ay,[c]yippy hi oh,[g]i'm riding to get my brother out of[c] jail

[c]i'm riding across the prairie
i'm[f] riding across the plains
i [g]should get to tombstone
at[c]the crack of dawn.

[f]yippy hi ay,[c]yippy hi oh,[g]i'm riding to get my brother out of[c] jail

[c]i'm riding into town now
and[f]get down of my horse
i[g]call out to the sheriff
that[c]mean son of a gun.

[f]yippy hi ay,[c]yippy hi oh,[g]i'm riding to get my brother out of[c]jail

i[c]say you've framed my brother
and[f]now your time has come
i[g]draw my gun and fire three shots
and[c]the sheriff bites the dust.

[f]yippy hi ay,[c]yippy hi oh,[g]i'm riding to get my brother out of [c]jail

[c]i'm going to get my brother out,
and[f]ride that long trail home
a[g]cowboys life is hard now
on[c]that dusty cattle drive.

[f]yippy hi ay,[c]yippy hi oh,[g]i'm riding to get my brother out of[c]jail

[c]there's not much time for sleeping
you[f]have to stay alive
your[g]gun is your only friend
as[c]you drive the herd along.

[f]yippy hi ay,[c] yippy hi oh,[g]i'm riding to get my brother out of[c]jail

[c]the cattle train is waiting
a[f]few miles down the track
but[g]for that mean old sheriff
there'll[c]be no coming back.

[f]yippy hi ay,[c]yippy hi oh,[g]i've been and got my brother out of[c]jail
           the end...
