TAYLORS SONG

(Sid. Palmer 2/26/04)

D/A/G(4/4 slow ballad

D A

He never fit in, as a kid, with his boots and cowbow hat.

D

All the jocks in school, never could see, where he was at.

A

His life was never, any fun, 'till they opened the gate.

A

It wasn't like ours,lived by hours,his came in seconds of

D

eight.

(BRIDGE)

G D A

As he goes out, in a blaze of glory,Underneath the bright

D

spot light.

G D A

One more round, in the big go round,that he called his

D

life.

G D A

On the back of a bull ,his life is full ,as he prays

D

nothing goes wrong.

A

And if it does,we will remember who he was,in the words of

D

a rodeo song.

(2)

Some say it's foolish, to live your life ,riding the very edge.

Others say, you can't die ,wondering what might have been.

Me I say ,there's got to be lessons learned, as we travel this road.

I was glad I was there,someone who cared, and he called me his friend.

(3)

No one could see, the tears as the rain fell down,and I wondered where he was.

A friend to the end,I traveled with him, moving from town to town.

And when they finished their words ,I swear I heard,as they lowered him down.

Somewhere on high,in that sweet by and by,they were calling for his next go round.

(This song is not for any particular cowboy but is a tribute to all who go out and lay it on the line ever day.

There have been greats who paid the price for loving this sport)
