verse 1
C Am
You look out the window
Em F
While I look at you
C Am
Sayin' I don't know
Em F
Would be like saying that the sky ain't blue
C Am
And boots weren't made for sitting by the door
Em F
Since you don't wanna stay anymore
C Am
You can have your space, cowboy
Em F
I ain't gonna fence you in
C Am
Go on ride away, in your Silverado
Em F
Guess I'll see you 'round again
C Am
I know my place, and it ain't with you
Em F
Sunsets fade, and love does too
C Am
Yeah, we had our day in the sun, when a horse wants to run,
Em F
There ain't no sense in closing the gate
C Am Em F
You can have your space, cowboy

But roads weren't made to not go down

There ain't room for both of us in this town
C Am
So you can have your space, cowboy

I ain't gonna fence you in

Go on ride away, in your Silverado
