[F] [C7]
[F] [C7]

As [F]I walked [C7]out in the str[F]eets of Lar[C7]edo
As [F]I walked [Bb]out in Lar[F]edo one d[C7]ay
I sp[F]ied a young c[C7]owboy all wr[F]apped in white l[C7]inen
Wr[F]apped in white l[Bb]inen as c[C7]old as the cl[F]ay

I s[F]ee by your o[C7]utfit that y[F]ou are a c[C7]owboy
Th[F]ese words he did s[Bb]ay as I b[F]oldly walked [C7]by
Come s[F]it down bes[C7]ide me and h[F]ear my sad st[C7]ory
I'm sh[F]ot in the br[Bb]east and I k[C7]now I must d[F]ie

It was [F]once in the s[C7]addle I [F]used to go d[C7]ashing
[F]Once in the s[Bb]addle I [F]used to go g[C7]ay
F[F]irst down to R[C7]osie's and th[F]en to the c[C7]ard house
Got sh[F]ot in the br[Bb]east and I'm d[C7]ying tod[F]ay

Get s[F]ixteen g[C7]amblers to h[F]andle my c[C7]offin
Get s[F]ix jolly c[Bb]owboys to s[F]ing me a s[C7]ong
T[F]ake me to the gr[C7]aveyard and l[F]ay the sod [C7]o'er me
For [F]I'm a young c[Bb]owboy and kn[C7]ow I've done wr[F]ong

Get s[F]ix jolly c[C7]owboys to c[F]arry my c[C7]offin
Get s[F]ix pretty m[Bb]aidens to s[F]ing me a s[C7]ong
T[F]ake me to the v[C7]alley and l[F]ay the sod [C7]o'er me
For [F]I'm a young c[Bb]owboy and k[C7]now I've done wr[F]ong

Oh b[F]eat the drum sl[C7]owly and pl[F]ay the fife l[C7]owly
Pl[F]ay the Dead M[Bb]arch as they c[F]arry me al[C7]ong
Put b[F]unches of r[C7]oses all [F]over my c[C7]offin
R[F]oses to d[Bb]eaden the cl[C7]ods as they f[F]all

As [F]I walked [C7]out in the str[F]eets of Lar[C7]edo
As [F]I walked [Bb]out in Lar[F]edo one d[C7]ay
I sp[F]ied a young c[C7]owboy all wr[F]apped in white l[C7]inen
Wr[F]apped in white l[Bb]inen as c[C7]old as the cl[F]ay
