[F#m] [D]
This is the last cowboys song, the end of a hundred [Am] [G] year wall.
[A] The voices sound sad as they're singing along, another piece of
[Em] [D] America's law.
He rides the feedlot, clerks in a market, on weekends selling tobacco [A] and beer.
And his dreams of [Em] tomorrow, [A] surrounded by fences, but he'll dream tonight of when fences [D] weren't here.
He blazed the trail, with Lewis and Clark, and eyeball to eyeball, old Wyatt [A] back down.
He stood shoulder to shoulder with Travis and Texas, rode with the seventh when Custer went [D] down.
This is the last cowboys song, the end of a hundred [G] year wall.
[A] The voices sound sad as they're singing along, another piece of [D] America's law.
Remington showed us how he looked on canvas, and Louis L'Amour has told us [A] his tale.
Me and Johnny and Waylon, and Chris sang about him, and wished who godly could have ridden [D] his trail.
This is the last cowboys song, the end of a hundred [G] year wall.
[A] They roll by as martyrs and don't even notice, like living and dying is all they ever did.
[D]
This is the last [G] cowboys [D] song, the end of a hundred year [G] wall.
The [A] voices sound sad as they're singing along, another piece of [D] America's law.
This is the last cowboys song, the end of a hundred year wall.
