[Verse 1]
        G                          
Well, I still wear his old, faded, 
D           A
red bandana
  Em                        D     
I use it to wipe the sweat away 
           A
from my brow
         G                   D    
You know I used it to dry my eyes 
                   A
on the day that he left me
                Em              
What I wouldn't give to have him 
     D                 A
here still wearing it now

[Verse 2]
G                          D     
It's hard to believe it'll be 20 
             A
years come November
    Em                    D       
Man, sometimes I swear it seems 
              A
like only last fall
      G                            
I can still hear the wisdom in his 
D                      A
words like well-spoken poetry
                    Em           
I can still see the salt rings on 
         D           A
his old 20X Resistol

[Verse 3]
G                D               
  Ah, but the days turned to 
        A
months into ages
Em                D              
  Just as sure as barbed wire turns 
A
into rust
    G            D                A
Old cowboys ride off into the sunset
         Em    D        A
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust

[Chorus]
A        G     D        A
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
A        Em    D        A
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
A        G     D        A
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
