C   
Lord I'm just a cowboy
F    
And you know cowboy ways
C    
You probably look at guys like me
                   G   
The way I  look at strays
C    
You know the kind that wonder off
F    
Away from all the herd
C    
I was truely lost myself
G                 C        
Until I found the word
F                      G        
My church is the great out of doors
C       
My song is natures sound
F             C         
The sky is my cathedral
                G    
My alter is the ground
F                   C        
You must be fond of mavericks
                             Am     
Cause you made them wild and free
F                   C        
I know you've got a place up there
    G                C        
For old cowboys like me
C
Don't think that I don't love you
F    
Because I'm not herd bound
C    
Its just that I'm uncomfortable
                 G    
With other folks around
C
I know your all around me
F    
I see you every day
C       
Its just that I don't go to church
G                  C    
Where other people pray

F                      G   
My church is the great out of doors
C
My song is natures sound
F             C       
The sky is my cathedral
                G    
My alter is the ground
F                   C         
You must be fond of mavericks
                             Am     
Cause you made them wild and free
F                   C    
I know you've got a place up there 
    G                C        
For old cowboys like me
