D

I grew up dreaming of being a cowboy

G D

And loving the cowboy ways.

D

Pursuing the life of my high riding heroes

E7 A7

I burned up my childhood days.

D

I learned all the rules of a modern day drifter

G D

Don't you hold on to nothing too long

G D G

Just take what you need from the ladies and leave them

D A7 D

With the words of a sad country song.

G D

My heroes have always been cowboys

E7 A7

And they still are it seems

G D G

Sadly in search of and one step in back of

D A7 D

Themselves and their slow moving dreams.

D

Cowboys are special with their own brand of misery

G D

From being alone too long.

D

You could die from the cold in the arms of a nightmare

E7 A7

Knowing well that your best days are gone

D

Picking up hookers instead of my pen

G D

I let the words of my youth fade away.

G D G

Old worn out saddles and old worm out memories

D A7 D

With no one and no place to stay.
