Intro:

Em Em


Verse 1:

G G Em Em
Me and my uncle went riding down,

G G Em Em
South Colorado, west texas bound,

G G Em Em
we stopped over in Santa Fe,

G G A A
That being the point just about half way,

G G B B Em Em
and, you know, it was the hottest part of the day


Verse 2:

G G Em Em
I took the horses up to the stall,

G G Em Em
went to the barroom, ordered drinks for all,

G G Em Em
three days in the saddle, you know, my body hurt,

G G A A
it being summer, I took off my shirt

G G B B Em Em
and I tried to wash off some of that dusty dirt.


Verse 3:

G G Em Em
West Texas cowboys, they's all around,

G G Em Em
with liquor and money, they's loaded down,

G G Em Em
so soon after payday, you know, it seemed a shame,

G G A A
you know my uncle, he starts a friendly game,

G G B B Em Em
Hey, high low jack and the winner take the hand


Solo:

G G Em Em x3
G G A A
G G B B Em Em

G G Em Em x3
G G A A
G G B B Em Em

Verse 4:

G G Em Em
My uncle starts winning, cowboys got sore,

G G Em Em
one of them called him, and then two more,

G G Em Em
accused him of cheating, oh no, it couldn't be,

G G A A
I know my uncle, he's as honest as me,

G G B B Em Em
and I'm as honest as a Denver man can be.


Verse 5:

G G Em Em
One of them cowboys, he starts to draw,

G G Em Em
I shot him down, Lord, he never saw,

G G Em Em
Shot me another, hot damn, he won't grow old,

G G A A
in the confusion my uncle grabbed the gold

G G B B Em Em
and we high tailed it down to Mexico


Verse 6:

G G Em Em
I love those cowboys, I love their gold,

G G Em Em
I loved my uncle, God rest his soul,

G G Em Em
he taught me good, Lord, taught me all I know,

G G A A
taught me so well, I grabbed that gold

G G B B Em Em
and I left his dead ass there by the side of the road.
