INTRO:  G   F   C   G   G   D   C



G                       D                            

They packed up all his buckles                 

                 Em           C

And shipped his saddle to his dad

G                    Em

And by the way the house looked

     Am               D

She must have took it bad

G                      

The workers come on Monday

                               C

To fix the door and patch the wall

     G                 D

They say she just went crazy

     Em               C

The night she got the call



G              D

He was up in Wyoming

           Em                C

And drew a bull no man could ride

G                     Em

He promised her he'd turn out

        Am                 D

Well it turned out that he lied

            G                                  

And all the dreams that they'd been livin'

                   C

In the california sand

Em                 D

Died right there beside him

      C

In Cheyenne



CHORUS:

C                        G

They say she just went crazy

D                  G

Screamin' out his name

         C           G

She ran out into the ocean

    Em               C

And to this day they claim

            G              F 

That if you go down by the water

               C                  G

You'll see her footprints in the sand

                        

'Cause every night she walks

    D             C

the beaches of Cheyenne



INSTRUMENTAL BREAK:  REPEAT INTRO (G F C G G D C)



G                     D

They never found her body

         Em           C

Just her diary by the bed

G                   Em

It told about the fight they had

         Am                D

And the words that she had said

        G                

When he told her he was ridin'

                              C

She said then I don't give a damn

       Em         D            C

If you never come back from Cheyenne



REPEAT CHORUS



C               G

Nobody can explain it

D                      G

Some say she's still alive

C                          G

They'd even claim they've seen her

       Em                C

On the shoreline late at night

          G              F

So if you go down by the water

               C                  G

You'll see her footprints in the sand



'Cause every night she walks

    D             C

the beaches of Cheyenne



             G

'Cause every night she walks

    D             C

the beaches of Cheyenne
