A G I am an old cowboyD I don't ride much no moreA G I came to this valleyD right after the warBm G and I used to shoe horsesD and there's some saddles I builtA G and I've rode after cattleD all over these hills [Verse 2]A G Started out at the pitchforkD when I was thirteenA G Riding young horsesD riding my dreamsBm G and them old hands they taught meD all it takes is some nerveA G just throw a leg over and ride what you rideD for all that it's worth [Bridge 1]A G Some folks regretD the lives that they leadContinues after the adBm G they stare out the windowD they yearn to be freeF# I live the lifeBm G that was given to meD and I threw a leg overA Bm G and rode it for all it was worthD A Yes I rode itG D for all it was worth [Verse 3]A G I was blue eyed and windburnedD I was every girl's dreamA G Wild steers on the mountainD where the butt brush was greenBm G and though some days were dark onesD when that old north wind blewA G I just gathered my reignsD and I rode it through [Verse 4]A G Time comes creepingD to wipe out your tracksA G but if your trail's been a good oneD you don't mind looking backBm G Dreams are like horsesD they roam wild on the earthA G catch one and ride itD for all that it's worth [Bridge 2]A G Some folks regretD the lives they leadBm G they stare out the windowD how they yearn to be freeF# I live the lifeBm G that was given to meD and I threw a leg overA Bm G and rode it for all it was worthD A Yes I rode itG D for all it was worth [Other]A G I am an old cowboyD I don't ride much no more
