Intro: G C Em C


Verse 1


Em
I can hear the wind whisper my name

G
Tellin’ me it’s time to head out again

   D
My horses are trailered and the lights are shutdown

    C
I’m long overdue for headin’ outta town

      Em
Gotta fever that they call the rodeo

G
Just enough winners and make the next show

    D
Sometimes you make eight sometimes you hit dirt

      C
Go on pin another number to the back of my shirt


Chorus

         G         D    C
And I’ll ride that pony fast

       G      D        C
Like a cowboy from the past

   G         D        C
Be young and wild and free

     G        D C
Like Texas in 1880

          G        D C
Just like Texas in 1880


Verse 2


Em
Awe, from Phoenix to Tulsa to the Astro Dome

     G
From New York City down to San Antone

        D
There’s boys that are ridin’ for legendary fame

        C
And our money’s all gone but they still ride the same

    Em
Our hearts are getting’ broken


And our heads are getting’ busted

G
We’ll always believe in the things that we trusted

        D
They’ll be those nights when glory comes round

          C
And we’ll tip our hats and wave to the crowd…



(repeat chorus)




Outro

D
Someday when you’re older someone’ll see

     Em
That buckle hangin’ there on your belt

C
Askin’ just how it felt…
