I'm a young cowboy Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]As [F]I w[G]alk[F]ed [C]out[G][C]
in [G]the streets of Laredo
[C]As I walked out in Lare[F]do one [Bdim]day,
[G]I s[C]pied a young c[F]owboy
[C]all dressed in [G]white linen,
All [C]dressed in white linen,
as [G]cold as the [C]clay.
Beat the drum [F]slowly,
play the fife lowly,
[C]Lay [G]the dead [C]march as you
carry me [G]along
[C]Take me to the green valley
There [F]lay the sod over me
For [C]I'm a young [G]cowboy[C]
[G]Let sixtee[C]n cow[G]boys
come [C]carry [G]my coffin
Let six[C]teen gam[G]blers
come [C]sing me a [G]song
Take me [C]to the [G]Green Valley,
and lay [C]the [G]sod o 'er me,
For [C]I'm a [G]young cowboy,
I know I've done [C]wrong.
Beat the [G]drum slowly,
[F]play the fife lowly,
[C]play the [G]dead [C]march as you
carry me [G]along.[D]
[G]Take [C]me to the green valley,
[F]there lay the sod o 'er me.
For [G]I'm [C]a young [G]cowboy,
I know I've done [C]wrong.[Ab][C]
