Tom: G

G D C Bm C

[Verse 1]
C            Am
Ride all the lonely nights
D                C
Ride through the day
                Am
Keep the herd a movin' on
D             G
Movin' on its way

[Chorus]
C           Am
Weep all ye little rains
D    C
Wail winds wail
Am         Em     D
All along, along, along
        Bm   C     C
The Colorado trail

[Verse 2]
          Am
Eyes like the morning star
D      G      C
Cheeks like a rose
            Am
Laura was a pretty girl
D            G
God almighty knows

[Chorus]
C           Am
Weep all ye little rains
D          C
Wail winds wail
Am         Em     D
All along, along, along
Bm           C
The Colorado trail

[Verse 3]
D                Bm
Ride through the stormy night
Em          D
Dark is the sky
                   Bm
Wish I'd stayed in Abilene
Em                Am
Nice and warm and dry

[Chorus]
D           Bm
Weep all ye little rains
Em         D
Wail winds wail
Bm         F#m    Em
All along, along, along
        G    D
The Colorado trail
Bm         F#m    Em
All along, along, along
        G D
