[Verse]
C Am C
It's quite this evening on the old Canadian
F C G
As I ride out alone
Am Em F C
I'm lonely but free just my pony and me
F G C Am C Am
and the river is singing a song
[Verse]
C Am
Got Plenty of rain
C C7
the grass is growing tall
F C G
the river is rolling along
Am Em F C
the cattle are fat the calves looking good
F G C Am C Am
just laying around waiting for fall
[Verse]
C Am C
As I ride out on the point of a mesa
F C G
I survey all the beauty below
Am Em F C
an eagle screams down to his friends on the ground
F G C Am
It's time to be bedin' down
[Verse]
C Am C C7
That old settin sun paints its colors on the mesas
F C G
and all the river canyon walls
Am Em F
From somewhere far away the coyote calls its mate
Dm G C Am C Am
It's time to be headin' home
[Verse]
C Am C C7
The moon is shining bright on the old Canadian
F C G
as I jog down the canyon for home
Am Em F C
I'm lonely but free just my pony and me
F G Am
A cowboy at peace with the world
F C F C Am
I'm a cowboy at peace with the world
[Outro]
