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
