WHEN COWBOYS DIDN' T DANCE - Lonestar


--------------------------------------------------------------------


INTRO: Am

(The riff is made up of three notes: open 5th string A note, open 6th
string
E note and 6th string, 3rd fret G note)

[Am]Seven hundred heads of cattle, an old forgotten[F] trail

[G]Six cowboys, one old man and another day of h[Am]ell

[Am](...) lagging behind from the strain o[F]f a broken wheel

[G]The only thing to look forward to is a campfire and [E]a meal

Am (repeat riff)

[Am]Sleeping 'neath an open sky, with just stars above th[F]eir heads

[G]I'd settle for a pillow and some sagebrush [Am]for a bed

[Am]Waking up tomorrow was merely done b[F]y chance

[G]Back when the west was wild and cowboys didn't da[E]nce

CHORUS: When cowboys didn[C]'t dance, didn't wear[G] designer shirts[Dm]

And their hear[F]ts were filled with memories

Their bo[E]dies filled with hurt

They would sit ar[C]ound the campfire[G]

And exchang[Dm]e a piercing glance

[F] [E]
[Am] Back when the west was wild and cowboys didn't dance.

Am (repeat riff)

[Am]Pour coffee from an old tin cup, more sweat upon th[F]e brow

[G]Another day of chasing that same old lo[Am]nely cow

[Am]And every new horizon began a bran[F]d new day

[G]Thirteen hundred miles to go, slowly made[E] their way

[Am]Across the plains of Texas through the Colorado snow[F]

[G]Final destination, Black[E]foot, Idaho

CHORUS

CHORUS

[Am]Seven hundred heads of cattle, an old forgotten[F] trail

[G]Five cowboys, one old man and another day of [Am]hell
