Intro:

Am

Am        G                  E7    Am
Early one morning at the St. James Hospital
Am        G                   E7
Early one morning morn in the month of May
       Am                 G            E7           Am
When I looked through the window and a'spied a dear cowboy
Am     Dm        E7          Am
A dear cowboy as cold as the clay

Am          G         E7          Am
Set ye down by me and hear my sad story
Am          G         E7 
Set ye down by me and sing me a song     
       Am           G             E7           Am
For my poor head is aching and my sad heart is breaking
Am         Dm          E7             Am 
I'm a poor cowboy that knowed he done wrong


Am            G                E7      Am
Send for that doctor to come n'heal up my body
Am               G                    E7
And send for the preacher to come and pray for my soul
       Am           G              E7          Am
For my poor head is aching and my sad heart is breaking
Am    Dm              E7         Am
I'm a poor cowboy and hell is my doom

Am                 G                   E7       Am
Get sixteen pretty maidens to come and carry my coffin
Am             G                   E7
Sixteen pretty maidens to come and sing me a song
    Am          G                 E7             Am
And tell 'em to bring some o'them sweet smelling roses
Am            Dm               E7        Am
So they can't smell me as they tote me along


Am             G          E7            Am
Beat the drums slowly and play the fife lowly
Am             G           E7
Play the death march as ye carry me along
      Am         G          E7      Am
Throw bunches of lilies all over my coffin
Am                Dm          E7             Am
Thare goes a poor cowboy that knowed he done wrong.
