Intro: F G C (2x)
G F C
You could say I’ve reached that time I know my trade
G F C
And that I know how to care for my guitar and I know how to get up late
Am Em
Comfortable when I sleep on the floor
F C
I’ve played a fair few shows and I’m gonna play more
G F C
And all along the while I was just trying to make people smile
C G F
I play cowboy chords
C G F
These air conditioned words
C G F G
About longing for the prairie and living in the suburbs
C G F
I sing simple songs
C G F
About rights and wrongs
C G F G
About finding that trail that leads away from everyone
F G C
G F C
And darling I know I do not give you much
G F C
I get hungry for a wondering and then I don’t come back for months
Am Em
And I keep your picture by my side
F C
It’s in my wallet, it’s on my mind
G F
Every song I know, contains a whisper of your soul
C G F
I play cowboy chords
C G F
These air conditioned words
C G F G
About longing for the prairie and living in the suburbs
C G F
I sing simple songs
C G F
About rights and wrongs
C G F G
About finding that trail that leads away from everyone
F G C
F G C
And so my days slip away all the same
F G C
Rolling wheels, hotels rooms and going grey
F G C
Casting glances over my shoulder as I go
F G C
Tying knots and dwell on things I do not know
G F C
I know my trade out on these boards with cowboy chords
G F C
I know my trade out on these boards with cowboy chords
G F C
I know my trade out on these boards with cowboy chords
G F C
I know my trade out on these boards with cowboy chords
