He was just about 90, he lived a long life
G A D
A bad hip and arthritis kept him up every night
G
So he took to a mountain on Saturday morn
Bm A G D D
Knew that this was the day that he'd be reborn
Bm A D
He was trackin' a grizzly, there was sign everywhere
Bm A D
Knew he didn't stand a chance but he didn't seem to care
Bm A D G
He was gonna go down in one hell of a fight
Bm A G D
So he lit a cigar and gathered his might
G D A
When that bear stood up out of the cave he was in
G D A
Most men would hightail but he stood there and grinned
G D A Bm
Got off one single shot, man it must have been scary
G D A D
He's gone but he left a cool obituary

Bm A D
All they found was a billfold and an old Stetson hat
Bm A D
Half a cigar and a rocky mountain map
Bm A D G
His .50 cal Hawken he took everywhere
Bm A G D
Even to his last fight with an old grizzly bear
G D A
When that bear stood up out of the cave he was in
G D A
Most men would hightail but he stood there and grinned
G D A Bm
Got off one single shot, man it must have been scary
G D A D
He's gone but he left a cool obituary

By a dark grizzly bear that weighed six hundred pounds

The same one that lay dead next to him on the ground
