Harry Nilsson - Little Cowboy

C B7
little fellow you’re so tired
C B7
you can hardly lift your head
Dm A7
but you wanna hear a story
Dm7 G C
before you go to bed
C B7
so if you’ll be quiet
C A7
and listen patiently
D D7
i’ll sing you a song
Dm7 G
that my mother sang to me

C D7
little cowboy , put your saddle in the barn
G C
tie your horse up tight , so he’ll know no harm
F F7
put your hat and your gun
C A7
beside you on the chair
D7 G G7
don’t forget , you’ve got to say a little prayer
C D7
little cowboy , you’d better hit the sandman trail
F F7 A7
or you’ll be late for roundup time you know
Fm F C A7
if you wanna be a cowboy , you’d better rest a while
D7 G C A7
little cowboy baby of the old corral
