The Cowboy Song 2

Subject: The Cowboy song by Garth Brooks D D G D Pushin' horns weren't easy like the movie said it was D A A7 and I don't recall no dance hall girls or hotel rooms with rugs. D You worked hot and tired and nasty, G D rode your pony's head too low. A There were all the nights you couldn't sleep G cause it was too damn cold; D A D and you'd sing "Strawberry Roan and "Little Joe". D D G D Like the time we hit the river and the rain began to fall; D A A7 and the water was risin' so damn fast we thought it'd drown us all. D G D We lost a lot of steers that day and four or five good mounts. A G But when all the boys rode into camp we knew that's what counts; D A D and we sang "Yippee Tiyiyay" amd "Amazing Grace"; Bm G D or the night they broke behind us and then took us by surprise. D A A7 I whistled out to Bonner I seen the terror in his eyes. D D7 G D And he rode for all his horse would ride and I know he done his best. A G But he crossed over Jordan ridin' Dunny to his death. D A D And we sang "Bringing in the Sheaves" and "The Rugged Cross". D D G D So when you see the cowboy he's not ragged by his choice. D A A7 He never meant to bow those legs or put that gravel in his voice. D G D He's just chasin' what he really loves and what's burnin' in his soul. A G Wishin' to God that he'd been born a hundred years ago. D A D Still singin' "Strawberry Roan" and "Little Joe". This sounds right to me. Enjoy! toughjeep@aol.com
