Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[F][F][F]
[Dm][Dm][Dm][Dm]

[Verse 1]
Me and my [F]uncle went ridin' [Dm]down
To South Colo[F]rado, West Texas [Dm]bound
We stopped [F]over in Santa [Dm]Fe
That day on the [F]pony, just about half[G]way
And [Dm]you know
it was the [A]hottest part of the [Dm]day

[Verse 2]
And I took the [F]horses up to the [Dm]stall
Went to the [F]barroom,
ordered drinks for [Dm]all
Three days in the [F]saddle,
you know my body [Dm]hurt
It being [F]summer, I took off my [G]shirt
And I [Dm]tried to wash
off [A]some of that dusty [Dm]dirt

[Verse 3]
West Texas [F]cowboys, they was all a[Dm]round
Wheat, liquor and [F]money, they loaded [Dm]down
So soon after [F]payday, no, it seemed a [Dm]shame
You know my [F]uncle,
he starts playin' the [G]game
Hey now, [Dm]high-low jack
and the [A]winner take the [Dm]hand

[Solo 1]
[F][Dm][F][Dm]
[F][Dm][F][G]
[Dm][A][Dm][Dm]

[Verse 4]
My uncle start [F]winning,
the cowboys got [Dm]sore
One of them [F]called him, and then two [Dm]more
Accused him of [F]cheatin',
oh no, it couldn't [Dm]be
I know my [F]uncle, he's as honest as [G]me
Hey now, [Dm]I'm as honest
as a [A]Denver man can [Dm]be, that's right

[Verse 5]
One of them [F]cowboys, he starts to [Dm]draw
And I shot him [F]down, Lord, he never [Dm]saw
Shot me an[F]other
hot damn, he won't grow [Dm]old
In the con[F]fusion,
my uncle grabbed the [G]gold
And we [Dm]hightail it [A]down to Mexi[Dm]co

[Verse 6]
Now I love those [F]cowboys, I love their [Dm]gold
Love my [F]uncle, God rest his [Dm]soul
Taught me [F]good, Lord, taught me all I [Dm]know
Taught me [F]so well, that I grabbed that [G]gold
I [Dm]left his dead ass
[A]there by the side of the [Dm]road, yeah
