 Lonesome Cowboy 
(Sid Tepper - Roy C. Bennett)  
Copyright Elvis Presley Music Inc. 
Standard tuning.
    I am just a lonesome cowboy
    And Im travelling all alone
    I ain't even got a nickel
    To call my baby on the phone
    F
    Just beyond the mountain lies a city
    F
    And I hear it calling me
    F
    Saddle up and ride you lonesome cowboy
    F                                   Dm
    Here is where you'll find your destiny
    F
    In my dreams the lights shine bright and pretty
    F
    Near to me and yet so far
    F
    Will I always be a lonesome cowboy
    F                        Dm
    Am I only reaching for a star
    Bb    Bdim       F
    Ride, ride along cowboy
    Dm   Dm+7  Dm7  G9              Gm7      C7
    Sing,           sing your song, cowboy
    F
    Will I ever leave this lonesome valley
    F
    Really see the lights that shine
    F
    Gotta find what lies beyond the mountain
    F                                Dm
    Gotta rope and tie that dream of mine
    I am just a lonesome cowboy
    And Im travelling all alone
    If you don't call me baby
    Then Im never coming home
