These are the chords for My Cowboys Last Ride by Johnny Cash on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard
[Intro]
G G
[Verse 1]
G C G
The cowboy's lady is crying tonight
G C
Because the cowboy is
D
out on the range
G C G
Running and rambling and chasing
some stray
G A7 D
And good cowboys don't ever change
D G
I tried to hold him in the home
corral
G D G
But the grasses were greener outside
D G
So I'm going to sit here in front
of this door
C G
And I've loaded up my cowboy's
forty-four
C
When the smoke clears there'll
G C
be a new brand on his eyes
G D G G7
This is my cowboy's last ride

[Chorus]
C G G
Oh-oh-oh I hate to see him go

But I won't be staying home crying
C G C
I-I-I I hate to watch him die
G D G G
But this is my cowboy's last ride

[Verse 2]
G C G
Cowboy remembers the old
trails we rode
G C D
And he's back in the saddle tonight
G C G
This time I'm letting the home
fires burn out
G A7
And I'm leaving when
D
I blow out his light
D
Because I still remember
G
good watering holes
G D
And the places that
G
are open and wide
D G
And I have decided he won't
put me down
C
A filly should be free
G
for horsing around
C
And I will no longer
G C
be hobbled and tied
G D G G7
This is my cowboy's last ride
[Chorus]
C G G
Oh-oh-oh I hate to see him go
C D
But I won't be staying home crying
C G C
I-I-I I hate to watch him die
G D G C
But this is my cowboy's last ride
G D G
This is my cowboy's last ride
