Johnny Cash – Streets Of Laredo chords ver. 2

C           G7         C            G7As I walked out in the streets of Laredo
   C        G7     C          G7As I walked out in Laredo one day
  C            G7         C                G7I spied a poor cowboy all wrapped in white linen
    C                G7       C    G7     CAll wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay
 
            G7              C             G7Oh beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly
C             G7            C        G7Sing the death march as you carry me along
C             G7          C                G7Take me to the valley then lay the sod o'er me
    C                  G7     C    G7   CI'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong
 
              G7          C         G7I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy
C                  G7       C            G7These words he did say as I boldly walked by
C               G7          C           G7Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story
    C           G7         C      G7     CGot shot in the breast and I know I must die
 
                 G7      C          G7Go fetch me some water a cool cup of water
   C               G7            C           G7To cool my parched lips then the poor cowboy said
C          G7         C          G7Before I returned his spirit had left him
    C           G7        C      G7  CHad gone to his Maker the cowboy was dead
