Capo 1


verse 1 
E                                       G# 
strolling across the pastures and beyond 
A                       B 
one ol cowboy sings his song 
E                                 G# 
through the ashes clouds and grain 
A                               B 
hear the lonely whistle of that train 

 
[Refrão]

A                               E 
faded postcards and the memories 
        B                            E 
all the telegrams that these old eyes can read 
A                       E 
wild horses in the full moon tides 

B 
what a lovely ride 
A 
for a hawk that glides 
              E 
what a lovely ride 

verse 2 
south dakota summer rains 
cool the buffalo out on the plains 
and as he rides into the night 
the silhouettes are dancing by the firelight 

Chorus 


verse 3 
well his work is never done 
and he rises each day with the timing of the sun 
its getting harder now to ride 
but his body keeps on moving 
and like a hawk he glides 

Chorus
