He (G)wanted someone who loves the land as much as (Am)he does
(D)Someone who knows the blessin' of a good hard (G)rain (D)
(G)Somebody simple and strong that he knows he can (Am)count on
(D)Soft as the wind, you're bold enough to bless his (G)name (D)

(Chorus)
That's why God loves (G)cowboys, I believe there's a (Am)place in his heart
'Cause when the (D)herd needs tendin', the fences needs mendin', (G)he knows they'll work (D)hard
On his (C)great big ranch called (D)life, 'cause they (G)love and take (G/F#)care of (Em)all it's creations
From the (C)horses they ride to those broken hearted honky tonk (A)angles
(Am)Ooh (G/B)ooh (D)ooh, that's why God loves (G)cowboys

(G)He knew they need room and (Am)freedom
So he (D)gave em' Texas and those big Montana (G)skies (D)
He was (G)there when he heard those prayers coming from (Am)shying
Right be-(D)side that young man on his last (G)ride (D)

(Chorus)
That's why God loves (G)cowboys, I believe there's a (Am)place in his heart

(Bridge)
(Bm)Ooh, those cold nights get (C)lonely
He needs (G)more then just a good fire keeping him (D)warm
(Bm)Ooh, there's nothing more (C)holy
Than a (G)love of a woman weather life (D)storm ---

(Chorus)
