He died with his boots on
F
in another man's bed
Am
F
The way he once said it would be

He's a scoundrel, I guess,
F
just got what was due
Am
F
But he was always a good friend to me
G
Dm
He talked of a girl he'd known long ago
Am
His eyes welled with tears
G
when he tried to explain
How the sound of her voice

had made him feel whole

And the smell of her skin,

like sage after rain

when he bought us some beer
Am
F
A six -pack if he could have two
C
G
He said, come back to my place
Dm
you can drink it there safe
Am
don't worry it's cool

i paused at a picture

and the smell of her skin

like sage after rain

I'd go to his house
F
and we'd talk bulk for hours

Pacing the floor

There's an old royal typewriter,
F
a desk by a window,
Am
F
Three novels in boxes under his bed.

A drafty old house,

his grandfather'd left him,

He grew up in Boston,

came west on a train.

The snow -covered front range,

She was killed in the wreck

that left him half broken
Dm
He told me about it one

time and that's all

Some people said it'd help

if she was driving

He said that made less
C
than no difference at all.
G
He'd talk of her beauty,
Dm
her ice and her fire.
Am
He'd smile when he'd
call her broad

with great brains.
But there was always respect,

and his memories were tender

in the smell of her skin,

they gave me the urn

in a late April drizzle

A place where we'd hunted
