                [Intro]

C G C

[Verse 1]

  C                                F    C
Let me tell you buddy, there’s a faster gun,
  C                        D7      G
Coming over yonder when tomorrow comes.
 C                              F       Am
Let me tell you buddy, and it won’t be long,
  C                                  G           C
Till you find yourself singing your last cowboy song.


[Chorus]

G                            C       G
Yippie-ki-yi-aye, when the round up ends.
G                           F       C
Yippie-ki-yi-aye, and the camp fire sims.
G                      F             Am
Yippie-ki-yi-aye, he shouts when he sings,
C                          G         C
When a cowboy trades his spurs for wings.


[Verse 2]

C                               F         C
When they wrap my body in the thin thin sheet,
C                                      D7          G
And they take my six irons, pull the boots from my feet.
C                              F       Am
Unsaddle my pony, she’ll be itching to roam.
  C                                G              C
I’ll be half way to heaven under horse powered my own.

[Chorus]

G                            C       G
Yippie-ki-yi-aye, when the round up ends.
G                           F       C
Yippie-ki-yi-aye, and the camp fire sims.
G                      F             Am
Yippie-ki-yi-aye, he shouts when he sings,
C                          G         C
When a cowboy trades his spurs for wings.


[Bridge]

G                      F     C
Yippie-ki-yi-aye, and glory bound,
G                         F          C
No more jingle jangle, I lay my guns down.


[Outro]

C                      F            Am
Yippie-ki-yi-aye, He shouts and he sings.
C                           G         C
When a cowboy trades his spurs for wings.
C                           G         C
When a cowboy trades his spurs for wings.
