Cowboy's Didn't Dance
VERSE 1
Am Seven hundred head of cattle, on an
F old forgotten trail.
G
Six cowboys and one old man, and a-Am-nother
day in hell.
Chuck wagon laggin' behind, F
strain of a broken wheel.
G
Only thing to look forward to's a E
camp fire and a meal.
VERSE 2
Am Sleepin' 'neath an open sky, just F
stars above yer' head.
G
Saddle for a pillow, and some Am sage
brush for a bed.
Wakin' up tomorrow,
F mearly done by chance.
G
Back when the west was wild, and E
cowboy's didn't dance.
CHORUS:
C Cowboy's didn't
G dance, or Dm wear designer
shirts.
F Hearts were filled with memories, and
E bodies filled with E7 hurt.
C Sit around the
G camp fire, ex-Dm-change a
piercin' glance.
F Back when the west was really wild,
and E cowboy's didn't
Am dance.
VERSE 3
Am More coffee from an old tin cup, more
F sweat upon the brow.
A-G-nother
day of chasin', that Am same ol' lonely
cow.
Every new horizon, be-F-gan
a brand new day.
G
Thirteen hundred miles to go, as they E
slowly make their way.
Am 'cross the plains of Texas, thru those
F Colorado snows.
G
Final destination E Blackfoot Idaho.
( Repeat
CHORUS )
Am Seven hundred head of cattle, on that
F old forgotten trail.
G
Now five cowboys and one old man, and a-Am-nother
day of hell.
