Well, [F#] I'm a-sittin' down in the San Antonio, waitin' on [D] an eight o'clock train.
[F#] My woman left me here last night, things [D] ain't been quite the same.
[F#] I gotta get back to Dallas and tie up [D] a few loose ends.
[F#] I'm gonna work a week, I'll make a hundred dollars, and hit [D] the road again.
I don't [G] want you to think that you're the first one to leave [D] me out here on my own.
[G] Cause this ain't gonna be [F#m] the first time [Em] this old [A] cowboy [D] spent the night alone.

I [F#] don't believe there'd be one in the whole bunch, [Em]
