YOU JUST CAN'T SEE HIM FROM THE ROAD
Sung by CHRIS LeDOUX
Written by Ed Bruce/Judith Bruce/Donnie Blanz

D                                  G             D
Well you don't see him much on the big screen anymore
                      A               D
The kids don't ride along with Roy or Gene
                                         G               D
And that ain't really him with all those feathers in his hat
                            A                D
And some frenchman's name embroidered on his jeans

Chorus:
Bm                              D
But he's still out there ridin' fences 
Bm                              A
Still makes his livin' with his rope
D                                      G              D
As long as there's a sunset he'll keep ridin' for the brand
               A                D
You just can't see him from the road

D                                         G                 D
Well he never learned to two step hell he barely learned to walk
D                      A               D
But he's worn a lot of leather off the tree
                                        G                D
He's had one or two good horses that he counts among his friends
D               A                  D
He never drew a breath that wasn't free

Repeat chorus:

D                            G            D
Well he's tall in the saddle short on the cash
D                    A                D
The last to quit the first to buy the beer
D                                         G             D
Well he's a knight in leather armor still livin' by the code
D                         A              D
That's made him what he's been a hundred years

Repeat Chorus:

D                                      G              D
As long as there's a sunset he'll keep ridin' for the brand
D              A                D
You just can't see him from the road
