Am F C
I can use a better friend than the one I've got, my shadow
Am C
Even when the Sun goes down, he will leave me by myself
Am F C
In the mornin' he returns, but he doesn't ever say much
Am F C
I don't wanna ride alone down this dark and lonesome road
Am F C E
'Cause even cowboys can get lonely from time to time
Am F C
'Cause even cowboys do get lonesome sometimes
Am F C
Yes, but I, I know one thing, I've come much too far
Am F
Yeah, to let you go now, please, don't let me go
C
Lord, don't let me go
Am F C
Share the silence with a fire, roll the rest of my tobacco
Am F C
Tellin' stories to myself, but I know them all too well (mm)
Am F C
When the desert night is cold, I just want someone to hold me close
Am F C
I don't wanna die alone, who's gonna love me when I'm gone?
Am F C
'Cause even cowboys can get lonely from time to time (mm-hmm)
Am F C
Even cowboys do get lonesome sometimes
Am F C
Yes, but I, I know one thing, I've come much too far
Am F
Oh, to let you go now, please, don't let me go
C
Lord, don't let me go

Am F C
Look into my naked eye, reflect out into the horizon
Am F C
Ooh, yet another day goes by and there's not a soul in sight
Am F C
As I ride into the dark, as I ride into the sunset
Am F C
I guess it's time to say goodbye to the rider of the night
Am F C
'Cause even cowboys can get lonely from time to time
Am F C
'Cause even cowboys can get lonesome sometimes
Am F
Yes, but I, I know one thing
C
I know one thing I've come much too far
Am F
Oh, to let you go now, please, don't let me go
C
Lord, don't let me go
G E Am F
'Cause even cowboys do get lonely

G C
Yes, even me
F C
Oh, just like me
G C
Even me
