Voodoo Cowboy

Am

[Verse 1]
Am
His mother was a snake
                 G
His father was a scarecrow
Am
Born in the desert with his hat on 
his head
Never missed a shot
           G
Sharp as a Pharaoh
Am
Tequila in the sunrise
The desert was his bed
Now he could dance the barn dance
              E
Like nobody before him
Am
But no woman would take him
'Cos his eyes were rather strange
In them you could see the emptiness 
       G
of the desert
Am
Yellow like a scarecrow
Black like a snake

[Chorus]
Am                   G
He was a voodoo cowboy
Am
And he had never found a girl to 
call his own
G                Am
Uh on and on and on
That lonely cowboy
G     C              D
But a cowboy's never really

E                      Am
Cowboy's never really alone
(whistling)
Really alooone

[Verse 2]
Am
He had a horse
Whose name was Plenty
And they saw things no man or beast 
should ever see
Out in the redness
Out in the empty
G               Am               
Where ghost and spirits walk 
                D
around like you and me-e-e
         Am
He met a girl
Called Annabelle
G           Am
And she was just the prettiest thing
 he'd ever seen
Under a lake at the edge of the 
world
He met a girl
Walking through the edges of his 
dreams

[Chorus 2]
                   Am              
(Because you see,) He was a voodoo 
        G
cowboy
           Am                      
And he was following a psychedelic 
        G
stream
              Am
On and on and on
That lonely cowboy
G     C
But a cowboy's never really
E                       Am
Cowboy's never really deceived
A        Am
really deceived

[Verse 3]
A5           Am
So they rode down
Under the water
And the sunset made a fire above his
 head
In search of warmth in search of 
love
In search of heaven above
But all he felt was cold
And all he touched was wet
But he could see her down a little 
bit deeper
And all he wanted was to hold her to
 his chest
So he reached down and she reached 
up
And he touched her
        G
And she drew him in
    Am               G            
And kissed him as he breathed his 
Am
final breath
            Em
Because you see

[Chorus 3]
         Am
He was a voodoo cowboy
G          Am
And he had finally found a girl to 
call his own
G             Am
On and on and on
Lucky lucky cowboy
G       C
Because cowboy's almost always
Em                    Am         C
Cowboys almost always die alone
       Am
Dieeeeeya aloooooneee
