Tonart: Eb major•
Intro 1
Eb
Verse 1
Eb
And now my friends you've asked me
Ab
Eb
what makes me sad and still
Bb
Eb
And why my brow is darkened
Bb
Eb
like the clouds upon the hill
Ab
Eb
Run in your ponies closer
Ab
Eb
and I'll tell to you my tale
Bb
Eb
Of Utah Carol my partner
Bb
Eb
and his last ride on the trail
Verse 2
Eb
We rode the range together
Ab
Eb
and rode it side by side
Bb
Eb
I loved him like a brother,
Bb
Eb
and I wept when Utah died
Ab
Eb
We were rounding up one morning
Ab
Eb
when work was almost done
Bb
Eb
When on his side the cattle
Bb
Eb
started on a frightened run
Verse 3
Eb
Underneath the saddle
Ab
Eb
that the boss's daughter rode
Bb
Eb
Utah that very morning
Bb
Eb
had placed a bright red robe
Ab
Eb
So the saddle might ride easy
Ab
Eb
for Lenore his little friend
Bb
Eb
And it was this red blanket
Bb
Eb
that brought him to his end
Verse 4
Eb
The blanket was now dragging
Ab
Eb
behind her on the ground
Bb
Eb
The frightened cattle saw it
Bb
Eb
and charged it with a bound
Ab
Eb
Lenore then saw her danger
Ab
Eb
and turned her pony's face
Bb
Eb
And leaning in the saddle
Bb
Eb
tied the blanket to its place
Verse 5
Eb
But in leaning lost her balance,
Ab
Eb
fell in front of that wild tide
Bb
Eb
"Lay still Lenore I'm coming,"
Bb
Eb
were the words that Utah cried
Ab
Eb
His faithful pony saw her
Ab
Eb
and reached her with a bound
Bb
Eb
I thought he'd been successful,
Bb
Eb
and raised her from the ground
Verse 6
Eb
But the weight upon the saddle
Ab
Eb
had not been felt before
Bb
Eb
His backcinch snapped like thunder
Bb
Eb
and he fell by Lenore
Ab
Eb
Picking up the blanket
Ab
Eb
he swung it over his head
Bb
Eb
And started cross the prairie,
Bb
Eb
"Lay still Lenore," he said
Verse 7
Eb
When he got the stampede turned
Ab
Eb
and saved Lenore his friend
Bb
Eb
Then turned to face the cattle
Bb
Eb
and meet his fatal end
Ab
Eb
His six gun flashed like lightning,
Ab
Eb
the report rang loud and clear
Bb
Eb
As the cattle rushed and killed him
Bb
Eb
he dropped the leading steer
Verse 8
Eb
On his funeral morning
Ab
Eb
I heard the preacher say
Bb
Eb
I hope we'll all meet Utah
Bb
Eb
at the roundup far away
Ab
Eb
Then they wrapped him in a blanket
Ab
Eb
that saved his little friend
Bb
Eb
And it was this red blanket
Bb
Eb
that brought him to his end
