These are the chords for My Cowboys Last Ride by Johnny Cash on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

[Intro]
G      G 

[Verse 1]
    G        C       G
The cowboy\'s lady is crying tonight
G            C         
 Because the cowboy is 
            D
 out on the range
G           C            G
Running and rambling and chasing 
some stray
G    A7                      D
 And good cowboys don\'t ever change
D                          G
I tried to hold him in the home 
corral
G        D                       G
But the grasses were greener outside
   D                        G
So I\'m going to sit here in front 
of this door
    C                    G
And I\'ve loaded up my cowboy\'s 
forty-four
          C                    
When the smoke clears there\'ll 
         G            C
be a new brand on his eyes
G          D             G    G7
This is my cowboy\'s last ride

[Chorus]
C          G                 G
Oh-oh-oh I hate to see him go
    C                       D
But I won\'t be staying home crying
C       G                 C
I-I-I I hate to watch him die
    G          D             G      G
But this is my cowboy\'s last ride

[Verse 2]
G        C           G
Cowboy remembers the old 
trails we rode
G         C                    D
 And he\'s back in the saddle tonight
G             C           G
This time I\'m letting the home 
fires burn out
G        A7           
 And I\'m leaving when 
                D
 I blow out his light
        D                
Because I still remember 
     G
good watering holes
G        D           
 And the places that 
              G
 are open and wide
    D                 G
And I have decided he won\'t 
put me down
  C                    
A filly should be free 
    G
for horsing around
    C                
And I will no longer 
   G           C
be hobbled and tied
G          D             G    G7
This is my cowboy\'s last ride

[Chorus]
C          G                 G
Oh-oh-oh I hate to see him go
    C                       D
But I won\'t be staying home crying
C       G                 C
I-I-I I hate to watch him die
    G          D             G    C
But this is my cowboy\'s last ride
G          D             G
This is my cowboy\'s last ride
