My Rifle, Pony and Me – Dean Martin
[C#] [G#]
The sun is sinking in the West
[F#] [G#7]
The cattle go down to the stream
[C#] [G#]
The redwing settles in the nest
[F#] [G#7] [C#]
It's time for a cowboy to dream (spoken)
[C#] [F#]
Purple light in the canyons
[C#] [G#7]
That's where I long to be
[C#] [F#]
With my three good companions
[C#] [G#7] [F#]
Just my rifle, pony and me
[C#] [F#]
Gonna hang my sombrero
[C#] [G#7]
On the limb of a tree
[C#] [F#]
Comin' home, sweetheart darlin'
[C#] [G#7] [C#]
Just my rifle, pony and me
[C#] [F#]
Whippoorwill in the willow
[C#] [G#7]
Sings a sweet melody
[C#] [F#]
Ridin' to Amarillo
[C#] [G#7] [F#]
Just my rifle, pony and me.
[C#] [F#]
No more cows to be ropin'
[C#] [G#7]
No more strays will I see
[C#] [F#]
Round the bend she'll be waitin'
[C#] [G#7] [C#]
For my rifle, pony and me
[C#] [G#7] [C#]
For my rifle, my pony and me.
