[Verse 1]
    A                              
I walked behind the chute, strapped
      A
 my spurs to my boots
         D               A
At that big Rodeo in Cheyenne
  D                            A
Feelin' tired and sore from a ride 
the day before
          B                        
And a thousand other rides since I 
  E
began
       A                        
As I climbed up the gate I heard 
        A
that young cowboy sayin'
                D                  
Well, that ole man ain't gonna 
                 A
ride, and I had to smile
        D                      A  
I said son it ain't age that makes
          A#   B
 me look this way
               A      E       
It ain't the years boy it's the 
   A
miles

[Chorus]
     D                             
It ain't the years that I've known 
            D
that have taken their toll
                    A
Cause they've been few
    D
If you took all the mashin's the 
draggin's and the crashin's

         B                         
You'd probably look the same way I 
 E
do
            A                      
It's the million miles of road and 
           A
gettin' snatched around and throwed
        D                       
That finally put the cramp in my 
   A     D
style
                    A            
It ain't age that makes me look 
A#   B
this way
               A      E       
It ain't the years boy it's the 
     A
miles

[Verse 2]
A
Went on and made my ride only scored
 a sixty-five
          D                        
But you know what really made my 
       A
day complete
              D                    
Was when I looked up just in time 
             A
to see that young cowboy goin' 
flyin'
      B                   E
And land in a pile at my feet
             A                 A  
And as the first aid came to haul 
                 D
him away I said son you'll be
                      A
Alright in a little while
              D                  A
He's on his way to findin' out 
            A# B
what it's all about
               A       E      
It ain't the years boy it's the 
    A
miles

[Chorus]
               D                   
It ain't the years that I've known 
          D
that've taken their toll
                    A
Cause they've been few
    D
If you took all the mashin's the 
dragin's and the crashin's
         B                      
you'd probably look the same way 
         E
that I do
           A                       
It's the million miles of road and 
           A
gettin' snatched around and throwed
        D                       
That finally put the cramp in my 
   A     D
style
                    A            
It ain't age that makes me look 
A#   B
this way
               A      E       
It ain't the years boy it's the 
    A   D
miles
                     A            
It ain't age that makes me look 
A#  B                 A      E 
this way it ain't the years boy
          A
 it's the miles
