  			D                              G                 D 
Hot coffee on the dash board a cold front on the way 
D                          G        A7 
Last night I was in Oregon tomorrow Santa Fe 
D                               G             D 
Up for two days runnin' and I'm feelin' tired inside 
D...                       G           A7    D 
Down to my last dollar but tonight I'm gonna ride 

       G              D 
Silver spurs and gold tequilla 
              G               D 
You know they keep me hangin' on 
       D... 
Pretty girls in old cantinas 
        G                A7 
Give me shelter from the storm 
    G                D 
The mile that I have traveled 
    G             D 
the places I have seen 
           D... 
Just won't let me put a saddle 
        G     A7     D 
On this crazy cowboy dream 

A gold watch in my pocket that my daddy gave to me 
He spemt his lifetime working for a home and family 
I call him on the phone sometimes, I see him when I can 
Just long enough to check the binds and jump the fence again 

Chorus: 

And I'll never put a saddle on this crazy... 
Cowboy dream 

Chorus:
