verse 1 

G 
He turned 87 on the 2nd day of June. 
                                       D 
In case nobody's countin' Son, that's many a moon. 
         G                                    C 
You'll find him down on Main Street. That's where he likes to walk. 
                 G                         D                 G 
It's worth the price of admission just to hear that old man talk. 


Chorus 

          G 
He's the last livin' cowboy in this town. 
                                      D 
He rode off into the sunset, yet naw, he's still kickin' round. 
        G                               C 
You'll find him halfway liquored up on Caddo County shine, 
    G            D             G 
Or all the way drunk half the time. 


verse 2 

         G     
He's got 40 head of cattle down on Turkey creek. 
                                              D 
There's always some old stray dog round the cabin at his feet. 
      G                          C 
His family left for California back in '29. 
             G                               D           G 
When it was two bits for the whiskey, and tobacco was a dime. 


Chorus 

          G 
He's the last livin' cowboy in this town. 
                                      D 
He rode off into the sunset, yet naw, he's still kickin' round. 
        G                               C 
You'll find him halfway liquored up on Caddo County shine, 
    G            D             G 
Or all the way drunk half the time. 

Bridge 

          B7                           C 
Keeps a jack knife in his pocket and pistol in his boot. 
       G                                D 
I've heard a lot of stories, but I've never seen him shoot. 
   B7                          C 
A '60 model pickup's all I've ever seen him drive. 
A                                D 
He 'aint rode a horse since the day ole Bully died. 


Chorus 

          G 
He's the last livin' cowboy in this town. 
                                      D 
He rode off into the sunset, yet naw, he's still kickin' round. 
        G                               C 
You'll find him halfway liquored up on Caddo County shine, 
    G            D             G 
Or all the way drunk half the time. 
              G                               C 
Yeah, you'll find him halfway liquored up on Caddo County shine, 
    G            D             G 
Or all the way drunk half the time
