capo: 2nd fret
[intro]
G D Em C
[verse (1)]
G
Her hands wrapped up in mine
D
Tears rollin' out of her eyes
Em
No messin' with a made-up mind
C
Sun settin' on goodbye
G D
Yeah, it's hard to believe
Em C
It wasn't me tryin' to leave this time
[chorus]
G
It ain't always the cowboy
D
That ain't got a lot of hang around
Em
Ain't got no settle down in their boots
C
Gone's just what they do
G
That restless running
D
Searching for something
Em
leaving love in the dust of a midnight
G C
Chevrolet--
G
It ain't always
Em D C G
The cowboy-- that rides-- away--
[verse (2)]
G
I've never seen over from this side
D
Never heard lonely get this quiet
Em
Still, i can't keep from smiling
C
'cause damn, that girl can fly
[chorus]
G
It ain't always the cowboy
D
That ain't got a lot of hang around
Em
Ain't got no settle down in their boots
C
Gone's just what they do
G
That restless running
D
Searching for something
Em
leaving love in the dust of a midnight
G C
Chevrolet--
G
It ain't always
Em D Em
The cowboy-- that rides-- away
[instrumental]

A tumbleweed heart chasin' that wind
C G Em
Goin' too far, wherever that is
[chorus]

Ain't got no settle down in their boots

Em D C G
The cowboy-- that rides-- away--
It ain't always the cowboy
Her hands wrapped up in mine
Tears rollin' out of her eyes
No messin' with a made-up mind
Sun settin' on goodbye
Yeah, it's hard to believe
It wasn't me tryin' to leave this time
It ain't always the cowboy
That ain't got a lot of hang around
Ain't got no settle down in their boots
Gone's just what they do
That restless, runnin', searchin' for somethin'
Leavin' love in the dust of a midnight Chevrolet
It ain't always the cowboy that rides away
I've never seen over from this side
Never heard lonely get this quiet
Still I can't keep from smilin'
'Cause damn that girl can fly
It ain't always the cowboy
That ain't got a lot of hang around
Ain't got no settle down in their boots
Gone's just what they do
That restless, runnin', searchin' for somethin'
Leavin' love in the dust of a midnight Chevrolet
It ain't always the cowboy that rides away
A tumbleweed heart, chasin' that wind
Goin' too far, wherever that is
It ain't always the cowboy
That ain't got a lot of hang around
Ain't got no settle down in their boots
Gone's just what they do
That restless, runnin', searchin' for somethin'
Leavin' love in the dust of a midnight Chevrolet
It ain't always the cowboy that rides away
Rides away
It ain't always the cowboy
