G C
Purple light in the canyons
G D7
That's where I long to be
G C
With my three good companions
G D7 G
Just my rifle, pony and me
G C
Gonna hang my sombrero
G D7
On the limb of a tree
G C
Comin' home, sweetheart darlin'
G D7 G
Just my rifle, pony and me
G C
Whippoorwill in the willow
G D7
Sings a sweet melody
G C
Ridin' to Amarillo
G D7 G
Just my rifle, pony and me.
G C
No more cows to be ropin'
G D7
No more strays will I see
G C
Round the bend she'll be waitin'
G D7 G
For my rifle, pony and me
G D7 G
For my rifle, my pony and me.
