Eb                    Ab 
She's a rounder I can tell you that 
Eb                         Bb 
She can sing 'em all night too

She'll raise hell about the sleep she lost 
Eb            Bb      Eb 
Even cowgirls get the blues

Especially cowgirls they're the gypsy kind 
Eb                               Bb 
And need their reins laid on 'em loose 
Eb                                   Ab 
She's lived to see the world turned upside down 
Eb        Bb              Eb 
Hitchin' rides out of the blue 
Eb                    Ab 
Even cowgirls get the blues sometimes 
                            Eb 
Bound to don't know what to do sometimes

Get this feeling like she's too far gone

The only way she's ever been 
Eb                          Ab 
Lonely nights are out there on the road 
Eb                       Bb 
Motel ceiling stares you down 
Eb                          Ab 
There must be safer ways to pay your dues 
Eb            Bb      Eb 
Even cowgirls get the blues 
Eb                    Ab 
Even cowgirls get the blues sometimes 
                            Eb 
Bound to don't know what to do sometimes 
                            Ab 
Get this feeling like she's too far gone 
Bb                      Eb 
The only way she's ever been 
Eb                    Ab 
Even cowgirls get the blues sometimes 
                            Eb 
Bound to don't know what to do sometimes 
                          Ab 
Get this feeling like the restless wind 
Bb                      Eb 
The only way she's ever been
