Verse 1. He Ctold a good story and all us Fkids Clistened
'Bout his life on Fthe Cborder and the way it was Gthen
And Cwe all believed, and when he Fwould Cfinish
We'd ask the Fold Ccowboy to Gtell em Cagain
G/BYou could Amalmost hear those Cprairie winds blowin' G/B
His Amsaddle a crekin 'neath his Cold faded Gsusjeans G
You could Ctaste the dry dust from the trail he Fwas Cridin'
As he sat there Fand he Cpainted those Gwest Texas Cscenes
Chorus. Dm C/EAnd the Fgrown ups would tell us
(And the grown ups that told us)
You Cboys keep your distance
that D7old man's just tellin you lieGs
But to Call us kids
(Well now they're all sayin')
Cowboy Bill was Fa Chero
Just as true as his Gblue texas Cskies.
Verse 2 (same chords as Verse 1)
He told of a time when he rode with the Rangers
Down on the Pecos and he saved the day
Outnumbered by plenty, they were almost to cover,
WIth thirty banditos headed their way.
He looked back just in time to see a horse stumble,
The captain wnet down and bill pulled up on his reins.
And through a flurry of bullets he rescued the captain,
They rode for a sunset, just the story remains.
Verse 3 (same chords as Verse 1)
Well, I still remember the day that it happened
We waited and waited, but Bill never showed.
And the folks at the feedstore said they hadn't seen him
So we set out for his place down Old Grist Mill Road.
And we Cried when we found him lying there with his Memories
The old trunk wide open things scattered about.
And he was clutching a badge that said texas Ranger,
And an old yeller letter said "Texas is Proud"
(To second Chorus)
