[Intro]
A D A E
A E
[Verse 1]
A D A
Well, there's many a strange impulse out on the plains of West Texas
E A
There's many a young boy who feels things he can't comprehend
D A
And a small town don't like it when somebody falls between sexes
E A E
A small town don't like it when a cowboy has feelings for men
[Verse 2]
A D A
But I believe to my soul that inside every man it's the feminine
E A E
And inside every lady there's a deep manly voice loud and clear
A D A
Well, a cowboy may brag about things that he's done with his women
E A
But the ones who brag loudest are the ones that are most likely queer
[Chorus]
D A
Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other
E A
What did you think all them saddles and boots was about?
D A
Many a cowboy who don't understand the way that he feels for his brother
E A
And inside every cowboy there's a lady that'd love to slip out
[Guitar Solo]
A D A E7
A E
[Verse 3]
D A
There's always somebody who says what the others just whisper
E A E7
And mostly that someone's the first one that get shot down dead
A D A
So when you talk to a cowboy don't treat him like he was your sister
E A
You can't fuck with a lady that's sleepin' in each cowboy's head
[Out-Chorus]
D A
Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other
E A
What did you think all them saddles and boots was about?
D A
Many a cowboy who don't understand the way that he feels for his brother
E A
And inside every cowboy there's a lady that'd love to come out
E N.C. D A
And inside every lady there's a cowboy who'd love to come out
