Note: Tune Guitar down one full step (Standard D Tuning)
(Verse)
DM D DSUS4 D C
It's all the same only the names will
G
change
C G F D
And everyday it seems we're wasting a-way
DM D DSUS4 D C G
Another place where the faces are so
cold
C G F D
I drive all night just to get back home
(Chorus)
C G F D
I'm a cowboy on a steel horse I ride
C G F D
I'm wanted dead or a-live
C G F D
Wanted dead or a-live
(Verse)
Sometimes I sleep sometimes is not for days
And people I meet always go their separate ways
Sometimes you tell the day by the bottle that you drink
And times when all you do is think
(CHORUS)
SOLO: D C G C G | G F D | D C G C G | G F D
(Bridge)
C G F D
Oh and I'm a cowboy on a steel horse I ride
C G F D
I'm wanted, wanted, dead or a-live
VERSE 3:
And I walk these streets a loaded six string on my back
I play for keeps 'cause I might not make it back
I been every where still I'm standig tall
I've seen a million faces and I've rock them all
(CHORUS)

Not a corection really, but to really emphasise when he
says "Dead - or - alive", instead of a strait F then D, try going:
Dead or a - live
1-----1-----1-----2
1-----1-----1-----3
0-----2-----2-----2
0-----0-----3-----0
3-----3-----3-----0
1-----1-----1-----x
Progressivly making the F more complete really boosts the lyrics.
-Metroplex | 9/17/2002 | This is definitely Bon Jovi - did MG record a version of it somewhere?
-tuton | 10/2/2003 | Maybe Try This...
D,Cadd9,G,Cadd9,G,F,D.
In Standard Tuning..Just a Thought..
This is How I usally Play It..
I play it from Bon Jovis Recording,
So it might be Different Than Montgomery Gentrys Version.
-tattoo30 | 12/17/2003 | 1986 by bon jovi... i think it was for one of those "young guns" movies... (1 or 2)
-Demon646 | 6/7/2004 | tatto, your 100 percent right ive played this live for years and thats how you play it brother
-ronbo | 8/9/2004 | it was originally on the "slippery when wet"
album then i think it was added to the young guns soundtrack
-huntercp | 8/16/2004 | It has also been on Bon Jovi's Cross roads album along with on there live album and was remaid for there This Left Feels Right Album.
-pyrojohn916 | 8/21/2004 | This was NOT in a "Young Guns" movie. The Bon Jovi song you are thinking of is "Blaze of Glory" which in many ways is similar to this song. And I also play in standard tuning using a Cadd9 instead of a C because it is more like Bon Jovi's and Chris Cagle's versions.
