[Verse 1]
[D]As [A]I w[D]alk[A]ed out in
[Bm]the streets of [A]Laredo,
[D]I walked o[A]ut in L[Bm]aredo one d[A]ay.
I [D]spied a young [A]cowboy
wrapped [Bm]up in white line[A]n
[D]Wrapped in white [Em]linen
and [A]cold as the clay
[D]I see by your out[A]fit
that [Bm]you are a c[A]owboy
These [D]words he did [A]say
as I [Bm]boldly [A]stepped by
Come [D]sit down beside [A]me
and [Bm]hear my sad [A]story
[D]Shot in the [Em]breast and I [A]know I must [D]die
Oh, beat the drum [A]slowly
and [Bm]play the fife [A]lowly
[Bm]Play[D] the dead marc[A]h
as you [Bm]carry me [A]along
Take [D]me to the [A]valley
and [Bm]lay the sod [A]o 'er me
[D]I'm a young [Em]cow boy,
I [A]know I've done [D]wrong
Once in the [A]saddle, I [Bm]used to go dashing
[A]Once [D]in the sad[A]dle, I use[Bm]d to go gaz[A]ing
[D]First to the [A]drem house
and [Bm]then to the [A]cart house
Got [D]shot in the [Em]breast
and I'm [A]dying [D]today
Go bring me some [A]water,
a [Bm]cool cup of [A]water
To [D]cool my parched [A]lips,
the [Bm]young cowboy [A]said
And [D]before I re[A]turned, his [Bm]spirit had [A]left
And [D]gone to his [Em]maker,
the [A]cowboy was dead
[D]We beat the drum slo[A]wly
and [Bm]played the fife [A]lowly
[D]Bitterly wep[A]t as we bor[Bm]e him alo[A]ne
We [D]all loved our [A]comrade,
so [Bm]brave, young, and [A]handsome
We [D]all loved our [Em]comrade,
although [A]he'd done more
[D]
