Intro | E | A | A | A | A |
E A
Another daybreak wakes me up to a hotel lobby coffee cup,
C#m B A
That dirty old white pickup truck with the trailer hooked up by the Denny's she's mine.
E A
Last night's bugs on the windshield, fast food trash on the dash meal
C#m B A E
A speeding ticket and a doctor bill from a gash I got from a short go in Casper,
A E A E A
Summer of last year, maybe next year.
A E A E A
Oh, and I ride and I fall, One day I might win 'em all,
E B
It's just broken hearts and broken bones, and a hell of a whole lot of being alone.
E A E A
But I ride and I roam, where I hang my hat is home
E B E
This cowboy life might kill me, but it's the only one I know.
E A
Cell phone was breaking up, the night she called to say she'd had enough
C#m B A B
Of my little white lies, little white lies, wanting somebody who could never be with her
E A
I look back on every fork in the road that I took to chase that buckle of gold
C#m B A E
And wonder if what I held from what I hold is worth trading away, Hell I don't know.
A E A E A
All I know is I ride and I fall, One day I might win 'em all,
E B
It's just broken hearts and broken bones, and a hell of a whole lot of being alone.
E A E A
But I ride and I roam, where I hang my hat is home
E B E
This cowboy life might kill me, but it's the only one I know.

E A E
Yeah it'll kill me before it ever let's me go,
C#m E
It'll kill me, but it's the only life I know.
A B E B
And I'd rather die than be caught crying, so I just smile and wear my hat down l—o--w
E A
Wear my hat down low.
E A E A
And I ride and I fall, One day I might win 'em all,
E B
It's just broken hearts and broken bones, and a hell of a whole lot of being alone.
E A E A
But I ride and I roam, where I hang my hat is home
E B E
This cowboy life might kill me, but it's the only one I know.
B E
Yeah this cowboy life might kill me, but it's the only one I know.
