G Well I was born in this valley, on
C G this ranch, I was raised
G I learned to lope, rope and dally,
Am D on the S lazy H
G Well the roots of my people, they
C G run deep on this place
G Bm C I am sixth generation on the S
D G lazy H [Verse 2]
G When it came to the future, I never
C G gave it a thought
G If there were broncs to be broken,
Am D endless steers to be caught
G Well my youth, it was carefree, for
C G the work was my play
G And what I loved would always be
Bm C D G there on the S lazy H [Verse 3]
G I had one beloved sister a few
C G years younger than me
G Before a sole cowboy had kissed
Am D her, she left for school in the East
G Me I might have gone to college,
C G might have liked to fly planes
G Bm But my dad, he needed help to run
C D G the S lazy H

[Verse 4]
G So I worked there long-side him,
C G put adult years in this place
G And I gained appreciation, for the
Am D lines on his face
G And when mom had grown older, and
C G when dad passed away
G Bm C It fell to me to look after the S
D G lazy H [Instrumental]
G C Am G D G C G [Verse 5]
G By now my sister she had married a
C G sharp attorney back East
G We didn’t see eye to eye but, I did
Am D my best to make peace
G What did they see when they looked
C G over, over the fence one fine day
G Bm They saw a whole lot of value in
C D G the S lazy H [Verse 6]
G So after thought and assessment,
C G the court awarded them half
G And no cow-calf operation carries
Am D that kind of cash
G Well I worked through the numbers,
C G worked them every which way
G Yeah I went through the numbers, oh
C G and boys I’m afraid
G Bm I had to sell twenty sections of
C D G the S lazy H [Verse 7]
G Sometimes right isn’t equal,
C G sometimes equal’s not fair
G There will soon be rows of houses
Am D on that ridge over there
G C Many lifetimes of labor will be
G all but erased
G Bm So shed a tear and look skyward,
C D G God help the S lazy H [Instrumental]
G C Am G D G C G [Verse 8]
G The last few years were a struggle,
C G but I gave it my best
G And I tried to go forward on the
Am D land that was left
G I have lived with the sorrow and I
C G will die with the shame
G Bm For now the bank owns what’s left
C D G of the S lazy H
