Well you Dpass around the pipe and you all get Ghigh. ANever even stop and wonder Dwhy. DMaybe it's because you wanna Gdie. G D/F# EmMaybe it's just the way things have to Abe.
You Dstay up late and drink too damn much Gwhiskey. You Aknow that sort of thing is kind of Drisky. DMaybe it's just because you like to feel Gfrisky.G D/F# EmMaybe it's just beAcause you like to feel Dfree.
CHORUS 1: (-piano)
GSaddle Tramp, how Amany people Dwatch you ridin' by, Like a Gthunder cloud that Afloats across the DArizona sky, And Gwonder if they're Alooking at a Dmighty happy Gman, G D/F# Or just a Emlonely breeze that Adrifts across the GEndless D/F#desertE saDnd.
(+lead guitar) |D A |C G | VERSE 2: (+piano)
Well it's Dgettin' kinda cold in ReaGdosa. A Abilene ain't gettin' any Dcloser. D G G D\F# One more drink, one more hand of poker. Because a Emfool and his money's gonna have to Apart.
DYou're too proud to ever show your Gsorrow. AYou don't steal and you won't beg or Dborrow. You Dmay be here today but you're gone toGmorrow.G D/F# There ain't no Emstrings on your Aboot heels or your Dheart.
CHORUS 2:
GSaddle Tramp, how Amany people Dwatch you ride away, GWonder why you Anever promise to Dcome back some day. Maybe Gthinking you were Aholding all the Dpieces in your Ghand,G D/F# Or are they Emslippin' through your Afingers like the GEndless D/F#desertE saDnd.
