The ranges are covered with a purple gown,
Em Asus A
As I ride through the hills today.
D D/F# G
The breeze is chilly as the sun goes down,
D A D
And we know that Winter's on its way.
D
When the days grow shorter and the night grows long,
Em Asus A
I'll dream beside my campfire then.
D G
Leisurely strummin' on my old guitar,
D A D
When the Winter winds are blowin' again.
G D
When the Winter winds are blowin' from the west,
E7 A
And the pale moon rises over mountain crest.
D
I'll cover my pony with a rug of fur,
A
Roll up in my blankets then.
D D7 G
For Summer is over and the nights grow long,
D A D
And the Winter winds are blowin' again.

The silence is broken by a dingoes call,
Em Asus A
Way up in the mountain's high.
D G
The cattle are bedded by the waterfall,
D A D
To the rangeland I'll never say goodbye.
D
When the days grow shorter and the night grows long,
Em A
I'll dream beside my campfire then.
D G
Leisurely strummin' on my old guitar,
D A D
When the Winter winds are blowin' again.

I'll cover my pony with a rug of fur,

Roll up in my blankets then.

For Summer is over and the night grows long,
