Cowboy chords

[C]The skies are dark and gray


For a week now its been raining everyday

And again Kan – sas City Kid

Is on the couch still trying to rope the stray

Well he's [G7]Crocket and he's Custer


And he's Hickok's right hand man

He's trying to tame the west

But mom don't seem to understand

And she's [F]told him to get ready

Cause its for the time for [G7]bed

[F]And how he wises he were [G7]free


Cause he was simply born to be

A [C]cow---boy


Asleep he rides the range

On a saddle that has seen its better days

And hear the coyotes call

They sing the sun to rest as evening falls

We'll [G7]make a pot of coffee boys


So strong you taste the grain

Stretch out on your blanket

As he clears his throat to sing

[F]Keep you eyes upon him

With his Gary Cooper [G7]grin

[F]It doesn't take much [G7]sense to see


That he was simply born to be

A [C]cow---boy


This concrete city's fenced him in

[F]Can't win 'em all but he'll be [C]on his feet again


He'll ride his fantasies till then

[F]Don't he take after me he was simply born to [G7]be

A [C]cow---boy

[C]The skies are dark and gray


For a week now it's been raining everyday

And again Kan – sas City Kid

Is all tucked in and dreaming of the range

A cow---boy a cow---boy
