As I [C] walked out [F] in the streets of [C] Laredo
[F] As I [Bb] walked out in [F]
Laredo [C] one day
[Cm] I [F] spied a [C] young cowboy [F] wrapped all in [C] white linen
[F]
Wrapped in [Bb] white linen [C] as cold [Cm] as [F] the clay
Oh, beep [C] the drum slowly [F] and play the [Gm] pipe low
[F] Sing the death [Bb] march [F] as you carry me [C]
along
[F] Take me [E] to the valley [F] that Abel [Gm]
saddled me
[F] I'm a young [Bb]
cowboy and no [C] one's [F] done wrong
I see by [C] your outfit [F]
[C] [F] these words he [Bb] did say as [F] I boldly [C] walked by
[F] Come sit down [C] beside me [F] and hear my sad story
[C] [F] Got shot in [Bb] the breast and [C] I'm no [F]
one
Go fetch me [C] some water, a [F] cool cup [Bb] of [C] water
To [F] cool my [Bb] parts lips then [F] the poor cowboy [C] said
[F] Before I [C]
[Bb] returned [F] his spirit [C] had left him
[F] Had gone [A] to [Bb] his maker, [C] the cowboy [F] was dead
Oh, beep the [C] drum slowly [F] and play the [C] pipe low
[F]
Sing the [Bb] death march as [F] you carry me [C] along
[F] Take me [C] to the [F] valley that [Bb] [C] [F]
Abel saddled me
I'm a [Bb] young cowboy and no one's done wrong
