Standard (EADGBE)

Intro riff

x2

There's a couple different ways to play this, it don't matta

you can either hammer on instead of sliding up

I like to play it like this:

Verse

To old cowboys the wind often whispers

Sweet reminders of where they belong

 On the back of a horse in a worn-out saddle

Singin' a sweet country song

Singin' a sweet country song

Intro riff

x2

To old cowboys the wind often whispers

Some remember the right and the wrong

 Trust a good wind and gun, don't be stupid, 'cause a

Bad wind is wicked and strong

 A bad wind is wicked and strong

Chorus

And those big winds still blow across Wyoming

 To old cowboys, it's all they've ever known

How those big winds still blow across Wyoming

 From Cheyenne clear to Yellowstone

 From Cheyenne clear to Yellowstone

Solo

messes around riff at first, just listen

G diatonic is played

Play chorus chords over banjo solo

To old cowboys the wind often whispers

Son, remember the sweet bye and bye

Remember the day 'cause there's times a comin'

 They'll be no place left for you and I

 They'll be no place left for you and I

Chorus

End on:

Thanks much
