D G
He's a cowboy, he was raised in Ohio
A D
He got married and moved further west
G
Showed up on time for a few awful years
A D
And one night he got drunk and he left
[Verse]
G
Drove a truck for a while up in Fargo
A D
But he never got used to the smoke
G
He once tried to settle and get some work
A D
But he's still just as wild, just as broke
[Chorus]
A D
The range has been settled for years now
E7 A
The old wranglers passed on with their kind
D G
But every now and then, you run into these men
A D
These cowboys born out of their time
[Verse]
G
For some change he'll remember your birth place
A D
'Cause there's hardly a town he ain't been
G
You can get up and leave anytime that you please
A D
That's one thing that he understands
[Chorus]
A D
The range has been settled for years now
E7 A
The old wranglers passed on with their kind
D G
But every now and then, you run into these men
A D
These cowboys born out of their time
[Instrumental]
D G A D G A D
[Verse]
G
He lives out his years out in Denver
A D
His best friend is a bottle of wine
G
And you don't need to ask anything of his past
A D
It's asleep in the back of his mind
[Verse]
G
As the sun rises over the Rockies
A D
So strange that he don't even care
G
When it burns out and sets down in Kansas
A D
He takes the fences around Larimor Square
[Chorus]
A D
The range has been settled for years now
E7 A
The old wranglers passed on with their kind
D G
But every now and then, you run into these men
A D
These cowboys born out of their time
