Intro: C   F 


Verse
 
C                              F 
  Every time I fall I get back up again 
         C                     F  
Cinch my saddle up and find me another wind 
C                         F 
  Let it take me where it wants to go 
        C                                  F 
Another one horse town, another damned old rodeo 
F 
  I know this life is crazy 
F 
  But I'll be home soon baby 


 
C 
I'll ride in on a sunny day, 
F 
Sing you a song, steal your heart away 
       C       F   
Like a cow--boy 
C 
Hang my hat like I'm here for a while 
     F 
Kick off my boots and drive you wild 
       C       F 
Like a cow--boy 
Am                                  F 
   Well baby you know I can't stay long 
                     Am 
You wake up, I'll be gone 
                     F 
Until then I'll hold on 
       C        F 
Like a cowboy 



verse:
 
C                                      F  
  I keep your picture tucked inside my old hat 
   C                        F 
It brings me luck, I need a bunch of that 
C                                 F 
  This midnight winding road runs through my blood 
  C                        F  
I can't give it up, like I said I would 
F 
  I know it's hard on you 
F 
  But like I always do 



 
C 
I'll ride in on a sunny day, 
F 
Sing you a song, steal your heart away 
       C       F   
Like a cow--boy 
C 
Hang my hat like I'm here for a while 
     F 
Kick off my boots and drive you wild 
       C       F 
Like a cow--boy 
Am                                  F 
   Well baby you know I can't stay long 
                     Am 
You wake up, I'll be gone 
                     F 
Until then I'll hold on 
       C        F 
Like a cow--boy
