Everybody wanna know where did all the cowboys go?

Musta been the whiskey, maybe it was all the Marlboros
Em G
But it ain't none of that, we laid 'em low

Yeah, believe me I know
[Chorus]
Em G
It was that midnight stare
Am Asus2
Look in her eyes like a knife to the heart
Em G
And it was that poison kiss
Am Asus2
Cherry red lips, oh my God, leaning up against the bar
Em G
And I know it wasn't a smoke, it wasn't a drink
Am Asus2
And I've got the proof

The way she does her run just another rodeo
Em G Am Asus2
Lipstick kiss on the mirror, that was how she wrote
Em G
Yeah it's supposed to be me riding away

But I'm tied in a bed she made
[Chorus]

It was that midnight stare

Look in her eyes like a knife to the heart

And I'm heartbroke to hell and I'm drowned in the well
D6
While I'm telling a bartender how
[Chorus]

It was that midnight stare

Look in her eyes like a knife to the heart

And it was that poison kiss

Cherry red lips, oh my God, leaning up against the bar
