Dusty Skies - chords, tab and comments
Especially clever with harmonies, Texas based cowgirl Cindy Walker wrote a lot of good western songs. This clippety-clop one I picked up from late Tex Ritter's excellent album "Songs from the Wild West". Sand in your boots, tighten your bandana and imagine you're fighting a howling sandstorm.
A A7
dusty skies I can't see nothing in sight
D A
good old Dan you'll have to guide me right
A A7 D A
for we lose our way the cattle will stray
Bm C#m E7/9 E7 A
and we lose them all tonight
D A
with all of the grass and water's gone
D A
we'll have to keep the cattle moving on
A A7
sand blowing I just can't breathe in this air
D A
thought it would soon be clear and fair
A A7 D A
but the dust storms were bad they took all we had
Bm C#m E7/9 E7 A
I've got to be moving somewhere
