[D]
[D] [G]
[A] By about the time that I [D] came around
He'd grown tired his health was headed southbound
He was slow climbing in the saddle, [Bm] but once he was [A] up he [Em] could fly
Lord he [A] could fly
He told me stories about
[D] California gold
Working with shorty in that West Texas cold
[D]
He was rough as a [C#m] cop tougher than [Bm] nails, but when he talked [A] about her [Em] he would cry
Oh how [A] he'd cry
And [G] I learned how [Bm] to rope and [A] I learned how [D] to pray
And [G] how actions speak [Bm] louder than [A] any words you may say
[G] Like [Bm] busting Bronx I've [A] hung on for dear [D] life
[G] To everything [Bm] that he [A] ever said
[Em] Oh
And though he's long gone.
[A] I'm still out here riding [D] with the red.
[G]
[D]
[G]
I
[D] Never liked I learned too much from school
He taught me the hard knocks and the golden [G] rule
[D] How to chew [A] how to spit [Bm] work hard never [A] quit
He [Em] gave me money so I could spend it on [A] the girls
And [G] I learned how [Bm] to rope and [A] I learned how to [D] pray
And [G] how actions [Bm] speak louder than [A] any words you may say
[G] Like busting [Bm]
Bronx I've [A] hung on for dear life
[G] To everything [Bm] that he ever [A] said Oh
[Em] And though he's long gone
[A] Still out here riding [G] with the red

[G] Everything [Bm] that he ever [A] said
Now [Em] keep singing his song
[A]
