A 
Under the skies of old "Big D" 
   D 
He works a nine-to-five 
E 
Bending steel and driving nails 
   A 
By phone in a suit and tie 
          D 
He fights traffic in his Mercedes 
   A 
To put on his cowboy boots 
        D 
Then he climbs on board his pick-up truck 
    E 
And barrels on out of the chute 

D                          A 
Dallas days and Fort Worth nights 
E 
All day long he sets his sights 
   A 
On ice cold beer and neon lights 
     D 
From sky high beams 
   To bucking machines 
       A 
He's a single man with a double life 
E           D              A 
Dallas days and Fort Worth nights 

          A 
Yeah he's headed honky-tonkin' 
     D 
To a place they call Cowtown 
           E 
He's gonna hit the floor hip-hoppin' 
     A 
Just spinnin' when the sun goes down 
      D 
He'll buy a drink for a cowgirl 
A 
Hopin' to quench her thirst 
D 
One that'll take him to heaven 
    E 
And bring him back down to earth 

D 
All day long he sets his sights 
   A 
On ice cold beer and neon lights 
E           D              A 
Dallas days and Fort Worth nights 
E                                     A
