G C G
Got talking to my Grand Dad in the bar of his hometown
C G D
Sipping on a beer to pass the time
G C G
He lived through many ages, passed on the cowboy crown
C G D
His stories etched in lines upon his brow
C G D G
I fought in two world wars for the freedom you enjoy
C G D Ddim
And I've loved this country more than it's loved me
Em G D/F Em
I've seen a lot of changes son, learned a trick or two
Em D Em
Now it's time to pass the learning onto you
Chorus
C D(C-shape) Em
Cowboy ride, the cowboy rides
C
From the brave New England Ranges
G
To a bright red desert sky
C Em C
We could learn a thing or two if we only take the time
Em D Em Em - D/F
To listen to the cowboy and his ride
He drove Cattle through the ranges, nursing every brand
Learned to love each corner of this land
The sun was his companion, his mistress, moonlight
He dreamed his dreams by campfire at night
I see an angry world out there well they're always wanting more
But simple dreams will prosper in the end
You see we've lost a sense of place and it seems a sense of grace
Those all too soon forgotten yesterdays
Chorus
Solo (not 100 on this)
C - D(C-shape) - Em C - C - G - C - Em - C - Em - D - Em - Em - D/F
Well, he wasn't one for talking long, once his case was made
Once you understood his point of view
He saw how times were changing, moving way to fast
When there's lessons we can still learn from our past
Son this year might see me through, I've done all that I can
I'm proud to say my blood runs through your veins
Remember where you came from boy, stand up straight and proud
And hold tight to these thoughts that I give to you
Some small licks you can use.
