When A Cowboy Trades His Spurs For Wings (The Ballad Of Buster Scruggs) Uke tab by Themes (Baritone Chords)

[Verse 1]

 C

Let me tell you buddy, there's a faster gun,

                         D7         G7

comin' over yonder, when tomorrow comes.

 C                                      F

Let me tell you buddy, and it won't be long,

         C                            G          C

'til you find yourself singing your last cowboy song.



[Chorus]

        G                   F        C

Yippee ki-yi-yay, when the round-up ends.

        G                   F       G

Yippee ki-yi-yay, and the campfire dims.

        C                          F

Yippee ki-yi-yay, he shouts and he sings,

        C                G         C

When a Cowboy Trades His Spurs for Wings.



[Verse 2]

 C

When they wrap my body in the bindling sheet,

                             D7                  G7

and they take my six-irons, pull the boots from my feet,

 C                                        F

Unsaddle my pony, she'll be itching to roam,

        C                           G             C

I'll be halfway to heaven, under horsepower of my own.



[Chorus]

        G                   F        C

Yippee ki-yi-yay, when the round-up ends.

        G                   F       G

Yippee ki-yi-yay, and the campfire dims.

        C                          F

Yippee ki-yi-yay, he shouts and he sings,

        C                G         C

When a Cowboy Trades His Spurs for Wings.



[Chorus]

       G            F     C

Yippee ki-yi-yay, (I'm glory bound).

       G               F              G

No more jingle jangle (I'll lay my guns down)

       C                           F

Yippee ki-yi-yay, he shouts and he sings,

       C                 G         C

When a Cowboy Trades His Spurs for Wings.
