[CHORUS]
Thi[D]s is the last cowboy song
The end of a hundred year wal[G]tz
The vo[A]ices sound sad as they're singing along
Another piece of America is [D]lost

He r[D]ides the feed lots,works in a market
On weekend selling tobacco and [A]beer
He [A]dreams of tommorrow surrounded by fences
But he'll dream tonight of when fences weren't [D]here

He [D]blazed the trail with Lewis and Clark
And eyeball to eyeball old Wyatt backed [A]down
He s[A]tood shoulder to shoulder with Travis in Texas
And rode with the Seventh when Custer went [D]down

Thi[D]s is the last cowboy song
The end of a hundred year wal[G]tz
The vo[A]ices sound sad as they're singing along
Another piece of America is [D]lost

Rem[D]ington showed us how he looked on canvas
And Louis Lamour told us his [A]tale
Me [A]and Johnny and Waylon and Kris sing about him
And wish to God we could have ridden his [D]trail

The [D]old chisom trail is covered in concrete
They truck it to market in fifty foot [G]rigs
They [A]roll by his graveside and don't even notice
Like living and dieing was all he ever [D]did

[CHORUS]
Thi[D]s is the last cowboy song
The end of a hundred year wal[G]tz
The vo[A]ices sound sad as they're singing along
Another piece of America is [D]lost
