A                               Asus
There were signs all over town, come see the rodeo
        D                             
When I saw those fairground lights shining,
    A            E
I knew I had to go
A                                 Asus         
There were bulls and wild horses, barrels and clowns
D                                       A            E      
Rhinestones and glitter sparkling, and cowboys all around
              F#m          D          E
But there was one, that I never will forget


Chorus:
        A E       F#m                        
He was wild, as a tumble weed rolling,
 D                A             E
Restless like a river running free
             A   E         F#m  
And when he smiled, I knew my heart would be broken
D                                                      
He was gonna leave that’s the cowboy guarantee


That night we got together, we drove out to the lake
Beneath the stars and Texas moonlight, 
I gave my heart away
But you can’t tame a river, and I wouldn’t want to try
'Cause it was worth all the hurting to know that for one night
I was loved, like I’d never been before


Chorus:
        A E       F#m                        
He was wild, as a tumble weed rolling,
 D                A             E
Restless like a river running free
             A   E         F#m  
And when he smiled, I knew my heart would be broken
D                                                      
He was gonna leave that’s the cowboy guarantee


Chorus:
          A             E              F#m             D
'Cause a cowboy is a cowboy, and he’s always gonna be
                         A  E  F#m  D                       
That’s the cowboy guarantee
                         A  E  F#m  D           
That’s the cowboy guarantee
