CA lonely spot I know where no G7man will go 
Where the shadows have all the Croom
I was G7riding free on that Cold S-P
D7Humming a southern G7tune
When a Cman came along made me Fhush my song
Kicked me Coff G7away out Cthere
As she pulled out of sight I G7turned to the right
The left and everyCwhere
All I G7could see was a Ccactus tree
D7A prairie dog playing G7there
I watched the Cprairie dog eat on the Ftumbleweed
That's his Chome G7away out Cthere
FEe oo ee dle dee dee ho oo lay dee ee Cdee 
G7Ee   F#oo   G7ee dle dee dee ho ho lay dee ee Cdee
Then I threw down my load in the G7desert road
Rested my weary legs Ctoo
Watched the G7sinking sun make the Ctall shadows run
D7Across that barren G7plain
Then I Chummed a tune to the Frising moon
He gets Clonesome G7way out Cthere
Then I closed my eyes to the G7starlit skies
Lost myself in Cdreams
I dreamed the G7desert sand was a Cmilk-and-honey land
D7Then I awoke with the G7dawn
There's a Ctrain coming back on the Fone-way track
Going to Ctake me G7away from Chere
FEe oo ee dle dee dee ho oo lay dee ee Cdee
G7Ee   F#oo   G7ee dle dee dee ho ho lay dee ee Cdee
