[Verse 1]
D                     D     C                    G
  It's twelve hundred miles   from Fort Worth to Vegas,
D              D                   C                G
  cowboys love rodeo, well; that's just the way God made us.
      D         D             C          G
I was raised on brimstone and   barbwire fences and
D            D                  C       D       D       D     D
Mama used to pray that I'd come   to my senses.

[Chorus]
           C      G           D      G
But I love   gold buckles and   wild horses and
C            G              D             G
  spurs that rattle when my boots hit the ground.
           C              G           D         G
It's those   eight second chances and   cowgirl glances,
         C             G            D             G
it's the blood and the glory, baby, that's why we ride.

[Interlude]
C          G        D          G
C          G        D          G

[Verse 2]
D                D           C              G
  My heart beats fast when I   slide in the saddle,
D                  D                 C               G
  cowboys with the ranked broncs but I just love the battle.
           D                 D            C               G
It's those   late nights and highways and   rigged out on pain pills
     D          D           C          D       D       D     D
that   Sin City rodeo still   gives me   chills.

[Chorus]
           C      G           D      G
But I love   gold buckles and   wild horses and
C            G              D             G
  spurs that rattle when my boots hit the ground.
           C              G           D         G
It's those   eight second chances and   cowgirl glances,
         C             G            D             G
it's the blood and the glory, baby, that's why we ride.

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
D                   D               C           G
  Mama said: "don't waste your time   chasing a rodeo",
D             D                      C              G
  but I never had a choice, it's the only life I'll ever know.
D                      D                  C               G
  And Daddy said: "you got the heart, now   bear down and try,
Em            G       D       D       D     D
  hold on for two and let 'em fly.

[Chorus]
       C      G           D      G
I love   gold buckles and   wild horses and
C            G              D             G
  spurs that rattle when my boots hit the ground.
           C              G           D         G
It's those   eight second chances and   cowgirl glances,
         C             G            D             G       G
it's the blood and the glory, baby, that's why we ride.

[End-Chorus]
C      G           D      G
  Gold buckles and   wild horses and
C            G              D             G
  spurs that rattle when my boots hit the ground.
           C              G           D         G
It's those   eight second chances and   cowgirl glances,
         C             G            D             G
it's the blood and the glory, baby, that's why we ride,
C             G            D             G
blood and the glory, baby, that's why we ride.
