Are There Any More Real Cowboys?  - Neil Young

Intro strum with the Davy Crockett-ish melody on harmonica
---------   (You have to get  feel for how many counts 
each chord gets-you can hear him strumming pretty easily, though, in that part).

                       
Are there any more real cowboys
  	           
left out in these hills?

Will the fire hit the iron
	  
one more time?
                       
And will one more dusty pick-up
               	 
coming rolling down the road 
        	       	         
With a load of feed before the sun gets high?
                                    
Well i hope that working cowboy never dies

(willie sings-same chords)

Not the one who's snortin' cocaine
when the honky-tonk's all closed
but the one that prays for more rain
heaven knows
that the good feed brings the money
and the money buys the clothes
not the diamond sequins shining on TV
but the kind the working cowboy really needs

(key change to )
                          
Are there any more country families
                      
Still working hand in hand

trying hard to stay together
             
and make a stand?
                                  
Well the rows and rows and rows of houses
                        
come creepin' up on the land
                                              
where the cattle graze and old grey barn still stands
                                      
Are there any more real cowboys in this land?
                                      
Are there any more real cowboys in this land?

Well, I don't feel 100% about this one, but see what you think.  
It's a decent approximation.
