Verse:

A5           B5     G#5                    A5     G#5 F#5 E5 A5
i met an old cowboy,    i saw the look in his eyes           something tells me

     B5                     E E5                         A5
he's been here before cause     experience makes you wise, i was only a

B5                    G#5                 A5
small child when the thought first came to me that i'm the son of a

            B5                E5
gun and the gun of a son that brought back the devil in me

[chorus]

Bridge:

      C#m                F#                          A5
