G#m
He died with his boots on
G#m
E
The way he once said it would be
G#m
He's a scoundrel, I guess,
G#m
E
But he was always a good friend to me
F#
C#m
He talked of a girl he'd known long ago
G#m
His eyes welled with tears
F#
when he tried to explain
How the sound of her voice
C#m
had made him feel whole
G#m
And the smell of her skin,

like sage after rain

I'd go to East Colfax with

when he bought us some beer
G#m
E
A six -pack if he could have two
B
F#
He said, come back to my place
C#m
you can drink it there safe
G#m
don't worry it's cool
F#
then he gave us his name
i paused at a picture

and he told me about her

and the smell of her skin

I'd go to his house

and we'd talk bulk for hours

There's an old royal typewriter,
G#m

Three novels in boxes under his bed.
C#m
his grandfather'd left him,

He grew up in Boston,

came west on a train.

The snow -covered front range,

and a lovely young teacher,

She was killed in the wreck
B
that left him half broken
C#m
He told me about it one
C#m
Some people said it'd help
C#m
He said that made less
B
than no difference at all.
F#
He'd talk of her beauty,
C#m
her ice and her fire.
G#m
He'd smile when he'd
call her broad
But there was always respect,
C#m
and his memories were tender
G#m
in the smell of her skin,

like sage after rain,

I drove north to Wyoming

A place where we'd hunted
