[Verse 1]
D                                    G            D
Well you don't see him much, on the big screen anymore
                    A                 D
The kids dont ride along with Roy or Gene
                                           G              D
And that ain't really him, with all those feathers in his hat
                           A                  D
And some frenchman's name embroidered on his jeans

[Chorus]
Bm             G                D
But he's still out there ridin fences
Bm              G               A
Still makes his livin with his rope
D                                      G             D
As long as theres a sunset, he'll keep ridin for the brand
               A                 D
You just can't see him from the road

[Verse 2]
D                                             G            D
Well he never learned to two step, hell he barely learned to walk
                         A                 D
But he's worn a lot of leather off the tree
D                                             G            D
He's had one or two good horses, that he counts among his friends
                  A                 D
He never drew a breath that wasn't free

[Chorus]
Bm             G                D
But he's still out there ridin fences
Bm              G               A
Still makes his livin with his rope
D                                      G             D
As long as theres a sunset, he'll keep ridin for the brand
               A                 D
You just can't see him from the road

[Verse 3]
D                       G                   D
Well he's tall in the saddle, short on the cash
                      A                 D
The last to quit, the first to buy the beer
D                                G                   D
Well he's a night in leather armour, still livin by the code
                         A                 D
Thats made him what he's been a hundred years

[Chorus]
Bm             G                D
But he's still out there ridin fences
Bm              G               A
Still makes his livin with his rope
D                                      G             D
As long as theres a sunset, he'll keep ridin for the brand
               A                 D
You just can't see him from the road

[Outro]
D                                       G            D
As long as theres a sunset, he'll keep ridin for the brand
                A               D
You just can't see him from the road
