Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]Jer[C]ry Jef[G]f W[C]alk[G]er[C]
[G]
[C]We hel[G]d a funeral and a wake at

[Verse 2]
[C]the
[G]Diamondback Saloon
With every old-time cowboy agathered
[Am]in o[C]ne room[D]
[Em]Swappin' tales and [C]tellin' lies from
[G]days when they were [C]young
[G]Fearless [Em]buckaroos who always
[C]let the ponies [G]run[C][G][C]
[G]I still see us

[Verse 3]
behind the chutes,
[C]standin' in the [G]sun
Light reflecting off the shiny
[Am]buckles [C]that we'd [D]won
[Em]Farmin' boys from [C]everywhere,
just a [G]ropin' in our [C]dreams
[G]Buckin' down the [Em]highway in old [C]trucks
and [Am]faded [G]jeans[C][G][C]

[Verse 4]
[G]Cheyenne days to Fort Worth
nights, we drove [C]every inch of [G]road
We often spoke our dreams out loud, sharing
[Am]rooms and [C]dirty [D]clothes
The [Em]bandaged up, the [C]broken ones,
too [G]tough to ever [C]cry
The [G]one we won the [Em]big go around,
the [C]drinks [Am]were ours to [G]buy[C][G][C]
[G]Days were filled with mundane chores that

[Verse 5]
[C]
kept us lean and [G]mean
But our nights were spent out dancin'
with the [Am]fairest [C]girls we'd [D]seen
Re[Em]galing them with [C]wild ass tales,
that [G]weren't that far from [C]true
There [G]wasn't a [D]single [Em]fa vor asked that
[C]your old pal [G]wouldn't do[C][G]

[Verse 6]
And every year [G]the finals drew us
[C]back to [G]OKC
Shoulders, Mahan, Steiner,
Vol, T-bone [Am]an d and o[C]ld Duffy[D]
And [Em]when the dust had [C]settled and
the [G]last go-round was was [C]run
We [G]stayed up [D]all night [Em]singing songs
[C]'til every [Am]song was [G]sung[C][G]

[Verse 7]
[G]The broken bones and broken hearts
that [C]led [G]to broken homes
And the trails we rode together,
now we [Am]travel [D]on alone
And the [Em]friends we saw each [C]summer,
now we [G]hardly saw at [C]all
A [G]little something's [Em]broken off each [C]time a
[Am]cowboy [G]falls[C][G]
[C][G][C]

[Verse 8]
[G]
Well adios amigos, [C]see you down the [G]line
I sure enjoyed the bullshit,
cause it [Am]brought back some good [D]times
[Em]And if you see those p[C]als we knew from
[G]days when we were [C]young
[G]Tell them I stil [Em]saddle up just
to [C]feel the ponies [G]run
[C][G]
