G
See that cowboy at the bar
C D
The one at the end with all the scars
C D
He got stomped by the meanest bronc in Santa Fe
G
But if he looks a little down and out
C D
It ain't that bronc he's thinking about
C D G
It's that girl that broke his heart along the way
[Chorus]
C D
When a cowboy falls he falls hard
G G/F# Em
Sometimes he falls way too far
C D
But you can bet that when he hits the ground
C D
He'll get back up and play the part
G G/F# Em
Even with a broken heart
C D
He'll hold the reins and hide the pain inside
C D G
Love's always a cowboy's toughest ride
[Verse 2]
G
Girl, just listen to me now
C D
I should know what I'm talking about
C D
Everything I learned I learned from you
G
I have rode broncs from hell
C D
And it hurt me every time I fell
C D G
But not half as much pain as you put me through
[Chorus]
C D
When a cowboy falls he falls hard
G/F# Em
Sometimes he falls way too far
C D
But you can bet that when he hits the ground
C D
He'll get back up and play the part
G G/F# Em
Even with a broken heart
C D
He'll hold the reins and hide the pain inside
C D G
Love's always a cowboy's toughest ride
