Edwards Don - Ridin guitar tab

(D) Some folks like the city

Grass thats (Em)curried smooth and green

Theaters (A7) and stranglin collars

Wagons run by gas (D) olene

But for me its hawse and saddle

Everyday (Em) without a change

And the (A7) dessert sun a blazin

On a hundred miles of (D) range

Just a (G) ridin, a (A7) ridin

Dessert (D) riplin in the (Em) sun.................

Mountains (G) blue along the (Em)skyline

I don't (A7) envey anyone when I'm (D) riden

When my feet is in my stirrups

And my (Em) hawse is on the bust

With his (A7) hooves a flashin lightnin

In a cloud of golden (D) dust

And the bawl-in of the cattle

Is a (Em) com-in down the wind

Then a (A7) finer life than riden

Would be mighty hard to (D) find

Just a (G) ridin, a (A7) ridin

Spittin (D) long cracks thru the (Em) air.............

Stirrin (G) up a baby (Em) cyclone

Rippin (A7) up the prickly pear when I'm (D) ridin

I don't need no art exhibits

When the (Em) sunset does her best

Painting (A7) ever-lasting glory

On the moun-tains to the (D) west

And your opry sounds so foolish

When the (Em) night-bird starts his tune

And the (A7) desserts silver mounted

By the touches of the (D) moon

Just a (G) ridin, a (A7) ridin

Who (D) can envy kings and (Em) czars..............

When (G) the coyotes down (Em) the valley

Are a (A7) singin to the stars when i'm (D) ridin

When my last long trail is ended

And my (Em) final bacons curled

And the (A7) last great roundups finished

At the home ranch of the (D) world

I don't want no harps nor halos

Robes nor (Em) other dressed up things

Just let (A7) me ride the starry ranges

On a spotted horse with (D) wings

Just a (G) ridin, a (A7) ridin

Nothin (D) I'd like half so (Em) well..............

As a (G) roundin up the (Em) sinners

That have (A7) wondered out of hell and a (D) ridin,

Just a ridin
