Western Stars

| Em  | F   | Em  | F   | G   | G

[Verse 1]
                 Em      F        
I wake up in the morning, just 
               G   Gsus4 G
glad my boots are on
                        Em         
Instead of empty in the whispering 
       F                        G
grasses down the Five at Forest Lawn
                       Em          
On the set, the makeup girl brings 
  F                           G   
me two raw eggs and a shot of gin
Gsus4 G

Then I give it all up for that 
       Em                     F   
little blue pill that promises to 
                          G    
bring it all back to you again
Gsus4 G


[Chorus]
             C    F           
Ride me down easy, ride me down 
        G      Gsus4 G
easy, friend
            Em               
Tonight the western stars are 
 F                G
shining bright again

[Verse 2]
                          Em     F
Here in the canyons above Sunset, 
                             G     
the desert don't give up the fight
Gsus4 G

                           Em      
A coyote with someone's Chihuahua 
                    F          
in its teeth skitters 'cross my 
               G
veranda in the night
                         Em        
Some lost sheep from Oklahoma sips 
      F                        G   
her Mojito down at the Whiskey Bar
Gsus4 G

Smiles and says she thinks she 
  Em                  F           
remembers me from that commercial 
                G
with the credit card

[Chorus]
                             C 
Hell, these days there ain't no 
      F                  G
more, now there's just again
            Em               
Tonight the western stars are 
 F                G
shining bright again

[Verse 3]
                         Em   F   
Some days I take my El Camino, 
                    G   Gsus4 G
throw my saddle in and go
East to the desert where the 
Em      F                    G
charros, they still ride and rope
             C                  F 
Our American brothers cross the 
                               G
wire and bring the old ways with 
them
            Em               
Tonight the western stars are 
 F                G
shining bright again

[Verse 4]
                   Em         F   
Once I was shot by John Wayne, 
                      G
yeah, it was towards the end
That one scene's bought me a 
Em                      F        
thousand drinks, set me up and 
                     G     Gsus4 G
I'll tell it for you, friend
              C       F           
Here's to the cowboys, riders in 
        G
the whirlwind
            Em               
Tonight the western stars are 
 F                G
shining bright again
        Em                F       
And the western stars are shining 
         G
bright again

[Chorus]
                      C         
Tonight the riders on Sunset are 
    F                        G
smothered in the Santa Ana winds
        Em                F       
And the western stars are shining 
         G
bright again
                       C    F     
C'mon and ride me down easy, ride 
              G
me down easy, friend
                   Em              
'Cause tonight the western stars 
  F                G   Gsus2 G
are shining bright again

[Tag]
               Em     F           
I woke up this morning just glad 
             G   Gsus4 G
my boots were on
