[Intro] D  G  D  A

D
Dust in the air as the lights come on
G
Boots hit the dirt, yeah, the crowd rolls strong
D
Pickup trucks lined by the county gate
A
Small-town fire on a Friday night late

D
She’s got her number pinned, reins in her hand
G
Heart beatin’ fast like a kick drum band
D
I pull my gloves on, feel that pull
A
Next out the chute is a mean black bull

[Pre-Estribillo]

Bm
When the announcer calls our names out loud
G
Time slows down in front of that crowd
A
Yeah, everything fades when the gate swings wide

[Estribillo]

D
It’s a Friday night rodeo, fire in her eyes
G
Barrels fly by under Texas skies
Bm
Eight seconds feel like forever to me
A
She’s racin’ that clock, I’m ridin’ that beast

D
The crowd goes wild, hear ’em scream and shout
G
Cowboy and cowgirl, givin’ it all we’ve got
Bm
When them gates swing open, everybody knows
A
This is our life at the Friday night rodeo

[Segunda Parte]

D
Her horse cuts tight, leather and speed
G
She leans in low, that’s pure grace I see
D
The clock keeps tickin’, my heart skips time
A
She crosses that line, right on the dime

D
I nod my hat, rope tied just right
G
That bull hits hard, but I hold on tight
D
Eight long seconds, hangin’ on faith
A
I hit that dirt, still standin’ straight

[Pre-Estribillo]

Bm
We meet by the fence, dust on our skin
G
Laughin’ like winners, no matter who wins
A
Yeah, side by side where we’ve always been

[Estribillo]

D
It’s a Friday night rodeo, fire in her eyes
G
Barrels fly by under Texas skies
Bm
Eight seconds feel like forever to me
A
She’s racin’ that clock, I’m ridin’ that beast

D
The crowd goes wild, hear ’em scream and shout
G
Cowboy and cowgirl, givin’ it all we’ve got
Bm
When them gates swing open, everybody knows
A
This is our life at the Friday night rodeo

[Puente]

Bm
Under them bleachers, hands locked tight
G
Sayin’ a prayer we both come home alright
D
Win or lose, yeah, one thing’s true
A
That dirt-road dream keeps pullin’ us through

Bm
Two wild hearts, one dusty road
G
Chasin’ dreams wherever they go
A
No matter where that highway bends

[Estribillo Final]

D
Yeah, Friday night rodeo, neon and dust
G
Steel gates slammin’, thunder and trust
Bm
She rides for the time, I ride for pride
A
Two wild hearts on the same hard ride

D
When the last light fades and the crowd goes slow
G
We load the trailer, headin’ home
Bm
With buckles, bruises, and stories we know
A
We belong to the Friday night rodeo

[Final]

D
Yeah, bulls get mean and the nights get loud
G
But she’s my forever in that rodeo crowd
