Charlie Ewing
Key:Am
Tempo:100
Time: 4/4
Capo: 2
[Intro]
AmOut of the golden poplar shade,  inGto a grassy sunlit glade
FThe cowboy reins his horse to blow,
Esits and he scans the slopes below for caAmttle
[Verse 1]
HAmis saddle's made to rope and ride, rGiata reins of braided hide
FChaps and vest and hat pulled low
EJust like a hundred years ago, vAmaquero
[Chorus]
FFor a hundred years he's been the king,
his cCricket clicks his rowels ring
WheGre cattle graze the slopes and hills,
he pFractices vaquero sEkills unAmchangingE  
[Interlude]
Am G F E Am
[Verse 2]
IAmn country made just for the cow,
toGo dry or steep to pull the  plow
The cFowboy sits and drinks it in,
still Ejust like it's always been, Amhigh lonesome.
[Verse 3]
No maAmn made wonders in his sight,
Gstill can see the stars at night
FHe's lost in time and all alone,
awEay out here he feels at hAmome, contented.F  
[Chorus]
FFor a hundred years he's been the king,
his cCricket clicks his rowels ring
WheGre cattle graze the slopes and hills,
he pFractices vaquero sEkills unAmchangingE  
[Interlude]
Am G F E Am F C G F E Am
[Verse 4]
AAmnd as his eyes lift to the sky, as Gif to watch an eagle fly
A jFet trail flits like skylight lace
Ereminds him of his time and place
FTechnology is here to stay, wCill progress drive his kind away?
WiGll he melt away like the mountain snow
Or Fgo the way of the buffalo, fAmorgotten.
[Chorus]
FFor a hundred years he's been the king,
his cCricket clicks his rowels ring
WheGre cattle graze the slopes and hills,
he pFractices vaquero sEkills unAmchanging

Charlie Ewing

Key:Am

Tempo:100

Time: 4/4

Capo: 2

[Intro]

Am G

Out of the golden poplar shade, into a grassy sunlit glade

The cowboy reins his horse to blow,

E Am

sits and he scans the slopes below for cattle

[Verse 1]

Am G

His saddle's made to rope and ride, riata reins of braided hide

Chaps and vest and hat pulled low

E Am

Just like a hundred years ago, vaquero

[Chorus]

For a hundred years he's been the king,

his cricket clicks his rowels ring

Where cattle graze the slopes and hills,

F E Am E

he practices vaquero skills unchanging

[Interlude]

Am G F E Am

[Verse 2]

In country made just for the cow,

too dry or steep to pull the plow

The cowboy sits and drinks it in,

E Am

still just like it's always been, high lonesome.

[Verse 3]

No man made wonders in his sight,

still can see the stars at night

He's lost in time and all alone,

E Am F

away out here he feels at home, contented.

[Chorus]

For a hundred years he's been the king,

his cricket clicks his rowels ring

Where cattle graze the slopes and hills,

F E Am E

he practices vaquero skills unchanging

[Interlude]

Am G F E Am F C G F E Am

[Verse 4]

Am G

And as his eyes lift to the sky, as if to watch an eagle fly

A jet trail flits like skylight lace

reminds him of his time and place

F C

Technology is here to stay, will progress drive his kind away?

Will he melt away like the mountain snow

F Am

Or go the way of the buffalo, forgotten.

[Chorus]

For a hundred years he's been the king,

his cricket clicks his rowels ring

Where cattle graze the slopes and hills,

F E Am

he practices vaquero skills unchanging
