Version 1
Slim Dusty Saddle Boy CAPO 1
G C
Thru the grey frosty dawn every cold winters morn
G C G D
rode this lad full of life and joy
G C
Every day just the same down the roadway he came
D G
he was known as their own saddle boy
G C
In his youth free from strife he was called from this life
G C G D
from the sorrows of lifes high-way
G C
He was needed above at the homestead of love
D G
for the last final roundup some-day
G C
Now the sad willows wave on a cold silent grave
G C G D
where the tall grasses bend and bow
G C
And the jackasses laugh is the only epitah
D G
o'er the grave of this brave saddle boy.
G C
At the schoolhouse on the rise teacher always watched the skies
G C G D
for the storm clouds that rose like foam
G C
Youve a long way he said so youd better go ahead
D G
saddle up saddle boy ride for home.
G C
He had 10 miles to ride thru the dark countryside
G C G D
as the storms all around raised on
G C
Just one creek left to cross struck by drifwood boy and horse
D G
swept away by the mad raging foam
G C
And the lightning overhead showed the last sandy bed
G C G D
where the boy and the pony lay
G C
And old boundry rider Troy was the the one who found the boy
D G
and who took the saddning message home next day
G C
And the old people say of the long nights in May
G C G D
when the wind thru the valley rolls
G C
Founding hoofbeats resound thru the tall timberland
D G
its there own saddle boy riding home
