[Verse 1]
[D]Out in the [A]state of
West
[D]Texas
Old [G]cowboys, [Gm]they all [G]gathered [D]round
A family of friends from all over
To [E]spread his ashes [A]around
In the [D]stirrups,
his [A]boots were tied [D]backwards
[G]Bill led his horse up the [F#]trail
He [G]had to be there,
[Abdim]he was cast in t[D]he air[B]
I'll re[E]member the [A]rest of my [D]days
Way out in that [A]desert ter[D]rain
They [G]scattered his ashes [Gm]on the pl[D]ains
On that painted plateau [A]we [D]had to let go
Of a [E]man we were all glad to [A]know
[D]Cowboy
[A]Frankie played [D]fiddle
He [G]had a great tear in his [F#]eye
Our [Gm]friend he [G]had [Abdim]gone,
but he [D]picked [A]his own [B]home
A [E]good place to [A]rest when he [D]died
Now he's just [A]dust in the [D]wind
He'd [G]been every place that I've [D]been
In [Gm]spite of in[G]justice [E]he[Abdim]
al[D]ways stood [B]tall
He'd a [E]done it all [A]over [D]again[A][D]
[G][D][G][Abdim][D][Bm][B][E]
[A][D]
He was not a [A]man of great for[D]tune,
[G]Born of a mixture in [D]race.
French and
Indian,
Irish and black,
He was [E]slighted by all in dis[A]grace.
As a [D]playwright, this [A]friend
Addressed the [D]troubles of men.
[G]He won a great prize of his [F#]day.
But [G]his true friends were al[E]ways
[Abdim]the cowboys.[D]
[B]Heard [E]nothing from them
[A]but their pra[D]ise
The song that was [A]sung was
[D]one of farewell
Goodbye [G]to the friend we'd known [D]well
A great man had died in
West
Texas
Gone to [E]heaven from a life lived in [A]hell
The [D]cowboy's lament [A]to his [D]spirit
So [G]moved me I could not speak a [F#]word
[G]Dust in the [E]wind [Abdim]is
[D]what he be[B]came
I'll [E]never [A]forget what I [D]heard
Now it's just [A]dust and the [D]wind
Weeping [Gm]every [G]place that I've [D]been
In [G]spite of injustice,
[Abdim]he always[E] stood t[D]all[B]
He'd have [E]done it all [A]over
[D]again[G][E][D][B][E][A][D]
