  Me and My Uncle

  John Phillips/John Denver     (klr)

  

  [Am] Me and my Uncle went a ridin down

  >From Colo [C] rado, West Texas [E] bound

  We stopped [Am] over in Sante Fe,

  Part it [C] being  about half [E] way

  [Am] Besides it was the [E] hottest part of the [Am] day

  

  [Am] We led our ponies into the stall

  Went to a [C] bar boys bought drinks for [E] all

  Two days in the [Am] saddle, my body hurt

  It being [C] summer, I took off my [E] shirt

  And [Am] tried to wash off [E] some of that dusty [Am] dirt

  

  [Am] West Texas cowboys all over town

  With gold and [C] silver, they're loaded [E] down

  Just in from [Am] round up you know it seemed a shame

  So my [C] Uncle starts a friendly [E] game

  A [Am] hollow jack the [E] winner takes the [Am] gain

  

  [Am] From the beginning my Uncle started to win

  Them Texas [C] cowboys they was as mad as [E] sin

  Some said he's [Am] cheatin', ah but that can't be

  Because my [C] Uncle, he's as honest as [E] me

  And [Am] I'm about as honest as a [E] Denver man can [Am] be

  

  [Am] One of them cowboys you know he started to draw

  I grabbed a [C] bottle, slapped him on the [E] jaw

  I had to shoot [Am] another, now he won't grow old

  In the [C] confusion, my Uncle grabbed the [E] gold

  And [Am] we hightailed it [E] down to Mexi [Am]co

  ...Mexico...way down to Mexico

  

  instrumental verse

  

  [Am] God bless cowboys, God bless gold

  God bless my [C] Uncle, God rest his [E] soul

  He taught me [Am] well Lord, taught me all I know

  Taught me so [C] well, that I grabbed the [E] gold

  [Am] Left him lying [E] there by the side of the [Am] road

  

  

  I hope you all enjoyed that on.
