[Verse 1]
G C
Friend I'm writing you this letter
G
And it's a long time overdue
D7
You're thinking just mind your own business
G
I wouldn't blame you if you do
C
You know our range is gettin' smaller
G
Hear you're all busted up inside
D7
But it ain't the broncos that'll kill you
G
It's just that damned old cowboy pride
[Chorus]
C Am
Cowboy pride can always get a man through
D7 G
But cowboy pride will make a fool of you
D7
Good women are hard to find
G
I'm talkin' about the faithful kind
[Verse 2]
C
I hear you're running with that waitress
G
And she's under age and wild
D7
You know your wife's the best there is son
G
Would you move in with that child
C
She stuck with you through the hard times
G
Think of all the nights she cried
D7
Will she be another victim
G
Of that same old cowboy pride
[Verse 3]
C
Guess it's time to close my letter
G
It's just somethin' that I had to do
D7
You know I made the same mistake once
G
Before she fell in love with you
C
So go home to your wife and family
G
It's time to put the past aside
D7
So you don't end up like me now
G
Nothin' left but cowboy pride
[Chorus]
