Johnny Cash - Slow Rider Chords

[Intro]
Long spoken intro monologue (01:30 minutes long)
 
[Verse]
Eb
      I ride an old paint he's on the worry side
    Bb                          Eb
And I'm a saddle tramp about to cross the great divide
              Bb                       Eb
Where there's grass in the coolies and water in the drawl
        Bb                       Eb
And the forty pound saddle won't make us both raw
 
[Chorus]
     Bb                     Eb
Slow rider, slow rider move on a little more
    Bb                         Eb
The sky boss is waitin' at the big ranch house door
 
[Verse]
Eb
    I can't help but missin' the daughters that I had
Bb                     Eb
One went to Denver the other went bad
   Bb                   Eb
My young wife died in a poolroom fight
      Bb                       Eb
But I try to keep singin' from morning till night
 
[Chorus]
     Bb                     Eb
Slow rider, slow rider move on a little more
    Bb                         Eb
The sky boss is waitin' at the big ranch house door
 
[Verse]
Eb
    Whenever I die take my saddle from the wall
Bb                          Eb
Strap it on snuffy lead him out of the stall
      Bb                 Eb
Throw me on his back and turn him toward the west
    Bb                         Eb
He knows how to take me to the spot I love best
 
[Outro]
     Bb                     Eb
Slow rider, slow rider move on a little more
    Bb                         Eb
The sky boss is waitin' at the big ranch house door (slow down during last line)
