[a]i'll sing you a [d]cowboy song
out on the[em]dusty trail
by the[d] campfire you'll[a]sing along,
you can [em]hear the coyotes [a]howling
[em]while i'm playing a[d]cow-boy[a]song.

[a]we wake up[d]next morning,[em]to the cooks call
[d]tucker is ready,[a]coffee's on the[em]boil
we[d]washj up in the creek,[a]fill our bottles[em]too
then[d]we'll mosey on outa here,'[em]cause the trail is[a] long.
the[d]wagons start rolling,[a]as we ride this [em]dusty trail
[a]till the sun sets over the[d] rockies
[em]another night by the[a] campfire
and i'll[em]play another [d]cowboy[a]song.

[a]a new day[d] dawns,we[a] round up the [em]strays
they[d]wandered off[em]in the night
[d]take e'm back t-o the[a] herd
[em]while i'm[d] singing a[em] cowboy [a]song.

[a]we drive the herd[d] into town
[em]put them in the[a] cor-all
[d]mosey on [a]down to the saloon
and [em]while we have a few[a] beers
[em]we'll listen to[d] another [em]cow-boy[a] song.

daddy cool it looks like you are almost posting in chopro formating if you add just a couple commands (typed lines) your songs will come up like "reflections"with the chords above the words in blue

So Good Daddycool,

Well my 8 brothers were cowboy and Injun Mad. To this day i hate the smell of caps!

Re: t:title"a cowboy song"

Daddycool - One of the songs I learned to sing as a lullabye is James Taylor's "Sweet Baby James".  It starts out with the lyric "There is a young cowboy..."  My kids know Sweet Baby James and request it by one title "The Cowboy Song", so your title caught my attention immediately, and now the lyrics have caught my imagination.  I shall give this one a try and see if I can put a melody to it.  Thanks so much.
