I'm a poor lonesome cowboy 
I'm a long long way from home 
                       F#m 
And this poor lonesome cowboy 
          Em   f#   g   g# A g f# e 
Has got a long long way to roam 
 
     D                  D7 
Over mountains and over prairies 
     G                      a 
From dawn 'til day is done 
Bm                   F#m 
My horse and me keep ridin' 
  G      A       D 
Into the settin' sun 
 
  Refrain 
 
There are guys who just figure 
Every problem with a gun 
And a finger on the trigger 
Can be dangerous hurt someone 
 
But problems solve much better 
By keeping calm and cool 
My horse and me keep ridin' 
I ain't nobody's fool 
 
  Refrain 
 
I'm a poor lonesome cowboy 
But it doesn't bother me 
'Cause this poor lonesome cowboy 
Prefers a horse for company 
 
Got nothing against women 
But I wave them all goodbye 
My horse and me keep riding 
We don't like being tied
