Cowboy Till I Die

D                     A
Well first off I'm an Okie
Bm                A
So don't call me Tex
   G                 D                 A         Bm    A
No I don't mind you asking about this cast here on my leg
D              A               Bm            A
I had a little bad luck with a bull in Santa Fe
   G                        D
He stomped me good but I'll ride tonight
           G                 A
Cause if I Don't I don't get paid
G          D             A              D
No I never though about a safer line of work
       G             D          G             A
With a little more security that won't get me hurt

        G            D
You can take away my pickup
       G            D
Put me in a black sedan
     G           D
Hang up my hat, spurs, and boots
          D    G     A
Ditch my Copenhagen can
       G              D
Put me in a high-rise office make
   G               D
Me wear a suit and tie
G              D               A     D
But I'll be a cowboy 'til the day I die

D                    A         Bm          A
Unless you're one of us you'll never understand
   G             D
Cowboy ain't just what I do
 A    Bm    A        D
It's who I am, It's how I think
      A                              Bm            A
It's what I feel, It's the way of life I love
    G                  D            G          A
And no it ain't like I had a choice it's in my blood

    G            D
You can take away my pickup
       G            D
Put me in a black sedan
     G           D
Hang up my hat, spurs, and boots
          D    G     A
Ditch my Copenhagen can
       G              D
Put me in a high-rise office make
   G               D
Me wear a suit and tie
G              D               A     D
But I'll be a cowboy 'til the day I die
