   D        A          D   A   D

VERSE ONE 
 
D           A           D            A      
As I walked out in the streets of Lar-edo, 
   D        A         D        A 
as I walked out in Lar-edo one day. 
  D              A             D             A 
I spied a young cowboy wrapped all in white linen. 
 D                A       D    A      D  
Wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay. 

   D               A           D             A 
Oh beat the drums slowly..and play the pipe lowly 
 D            A             D         A 
Sing the dead march..as you carry me along 
     D          A           D            A 
Take me to the valley there lay the sod o?re me 
D            A         D     A        D  
I?m a young cowboy and know I?ve done wrong
 
 
. 
VERSE TWO 
 
D              A           D          A 
I see by your outfit..that you are a cowboy. 
       D           A          D            A  
These words he did say as I  boldly walked by  
     D           A           D            A 
Come sit down be-side me and hear my sad story 
    D           A            D    A      D 
Got shot in the breast and I know I must die. 
 
 
VERSE THREE 
 
    D            A         D            A  
Go fetch me some water...a cool cup of water 
    D              A              D          A 
To cool my parched lips then the poor cowboy said 
 D           A          D         A 
before I re-turned his sprit had left him 
    D            A          D     A   D 
had gone to his maker, the cowboy was dead. 
 
 
CHORUS REPEAT 
 
    D              A          D              A 
Oh beat the drums slowly..and play the pipe lowly 
D              A            D         A 
Sing the dead march..as you carry me along 
     D          A           D            A 
Take me to the valley there lay the sod o?re me 
 D           A         D    A         D 
I?m a young cowboy and know I?ve done wrong
