Verse 1
G
I started up the trail with
Em
Charlie and the boys,
G
Em
my heart was sadly grieving.
G
I started up the trail with
Em
Charlie and the boys, old
San
C
G
Antonio grieving.
I started up the trail with
Em
Charlie and the boys,
G
Em
the prairie winds was a sighing.
G
But I couldn't look back at a
Em
one -room shack where
As the herd lined out,
I heard the shout of old
C
G
Charlie, goodnight dearly
Em
I turned my head just sick with dread
G
D
from a home that I loved dearly
Em
Charlie and the boys,
G
Em
the first drive to be mak in'
G
Em
I can't say why, but I said good -bye
C
D
G
To a mother's heart a -breakin'
And the cattle they bought
and the herd just crawled
C
G
As they grazed them along the way
C
D
The rivers we crossed and
Em
G
D
And we watched them swept away
G
Each mile to me an eternity
C
D
C
G
As they cursed the thirst and the weather
C
D
A wearison's stride is a
G
Em
cowboy's life,
Am
D
G
Bone, beans, and pound and leather.
Mmm.
I headed up the trail with
Em
Charlie and the boys,
G
Em
Old blue was a -leadin' out steady.
G
Em
A scout rode out on a northward route
C
D
G
to get the bedround ready.
As I lay that night in a campfire's light,
C
D
C
G
Just memories to re mind me
Of a mother's love, and the
C
D
G
D
G
And the world that left behind me.
As I rode along the trail with
Em
Charlie and the boys,
G
Em
The dark sky sent us a -praying,
St.
C
G
D
G
On the backs of the longhorns playing.
And the heavens they riled,
and the herd went wild,
C
D
G
Like a devil had come to vex us.
Em
And a road with dread and a hatless head
C
D
Just a wishle -nag stayed in
G
Texas
And the cattle they bawled
and the herd just crawled
C
D
G
As we grazed them along the way
C
D
The rivers we crossed and
Em
G
Em
And we watched them swept away
D
G
Each mile to me an eternity
C
D
G
As I curse the thirst and the weather
C
D
A wearisome stride,
G
there's a cowboy's life
Em
Am
D
G
On beans and pounds and leather
As I rode along the trail with
Em
Charlie and the boys
The
G
Em
Canadian's banks were a -spillin'
Em
so we pushed them slow
C
D
G
Till we finally stopped a -millin'
Then a rustler's raid was a visit paid
C
D
G
With lead and hail to pay
Em
And I wrote that night and I learned to fight
C
D
G
But better how to pray
The trail was hard on
Em
Charlie and the boys
G
Em
To dodge the rain kept a -fallin'
Bm
G
Em
The cow boys all were fools to fall
C
G
For every vice a -callin'
And as the raindrops splashed
and the lightning flashed
As
C
G
Sodom's flames were burnin'
Em
I rode from town to the old bed round,
C
G
just a -lookin' back again.
And the cattle they bawled, and the herd just crawled,
C
G
as we grazed them along the way.
C
D
G
Em
The rivers we crossed, and the stock we lost,
G
D
and we watched them swept away.
G
Each mile to me an eternity,
C
D
G
as I cursed the thirst and the weather.
C
D
No wearisome strife,
Em
Am
D
G
On beans and pounds and leather
Started down the trail with
Em
G
Charlie and the boys
Back to good old
G
Eatin' beans by the pail and
C
D
G
Where the only fears I dreaded
And if I ever get back to that one -room
C
G
shack I swear that I will never
Em
Go up that trail in the rain and the hail
C
D
G
On beans and pound and leather
And the cattle they bawled
and the herd just crawled
C
D
G
As we praised them along the way
C
D
The rivers we crossed and
Em
G
D
And we watched them swept away
G
Each mile to me an eternity
C
D
G
As I cursed the thirst and the weather
C
D
G
A wearisome strife is a cowboy's life
Em
Am
D
G
On beans and pound and leather
C
D
G
A wearisome strife is a cowboy's life
Em
Am
D
G
Em
On beans and pound and leather
G
Em
G
Em
C
D
G
Mmmmmmm.
