Goodnight From The Goodnight Loving Trail Chords

(ver. 1)
Chris Guenther
[Intro]
 
D G A G D
D G A G D
 
[Verse 1]
 
D                                      G                     Em
We rode south of Belknap, Texas on the route of the overland mail
A                                  G                D
Two thousand head of cattle on the goodnight loving trail
D                         G               Em
Bound for Pecos river, we slowly made our way
A                                G             D
Thriteen restless riders working eighteen hour days
 
[Chorus]
 
D                                   G
Goodnight from the goodnight loving trail
      A                                G             D
We're headin' north of Denver, driving cattle to the rail
D                                  G
I promised that I'd write you if I had a chance at all
   A                                  G               D
If I'm not back by summer's end, then I'll be back by fall
 
[Solo]
 
D G A G D
 
[Verse 2]
 
D                                        G           Em
At Staked Plains we made nightfall, made camp by the riverside
A                               G              D
North of Horsehead Crossing up again before daylight
D                              G                 Em
We rested in Fort Sumner, rode hard the next few days
A                                        G                 D
After Raton on north to Pueblo, Denver's one hundred miles away
 
[Chorus]
 
D                                   G
Goodnight from the goodnight loving trail
      A                                G             D
We're headin' north of Denver, driving cattle to the rail
D                                  G
I promised that I'd write you if I had a chance at all
   A                                  G               D
If I'm not back by summer's end, then I'll be back by fall
 
[Verse 3]
 
D                               G                 Em
We sold that herd of cattle and split it thirteen ways
  A                               G            D
I spent the night in Denver and decided not to stay
D                                       G          Em
There's so much I can tell you, I could spend many tales
       A                                  G                D
Of the eighteen hundred mile drive on the goodnight loving trail
D                                       G          Em
There's so much I can tell you, I could spend many tales
       A                                  G                D
Of the eighteen hundred mile drive on the goodnight loving trail
 
[Chorus]
 
D                                   G
Goodnight from the goodnight loving trail
      A                                G             D
We're headin' north of Denver, driving cattle to the rail
D                                  G
I promised that I'd write you if I had a chance at all
   A                                  G               D
If I'm not back by summer's end, then I'll be back by fall
 
[Outro]
