Jesse went away last summer couple of month ago
  D                G        D
After all our time together, it was hard to see her go
 D                G                 D
She called me right up when she arrived, asked me one more time to come
 D               G        D
Livn on an L.A. freeway, aint my kind of havin fun
 G           D
I think Id rather be a cowboy
 G              D
I think Id rather ride the range
 G           D
I think Id rather be a cowboy
A           Asus       D
Than to lay me down in love and ladys chains

D G D x2

 D                  G      D
When we were just beginning, it was such an easy way
 D                   G        D
Layin back up in the mountains, singin songs for sunny days
 D                     G        D
But she got tired of picking daisies and cookin my meals for me
 D                       G        D
She can live the life she wants to, yes, and its all right with me
 G           D
I think Id rather be cowboy
 G              D
I think Id rather ride the range
 G            D
I think Id rather be a cowboy
A            Asus      D
Than to lay me down in love and ladys chains

 A    Asus     G     D
Id rather live on the side of a mountain
  A   Asus          G       D
Than wander through canyons of concrete and steel
 A     Asus     G      D
Id rather laugh with the rain and sunshine
 C          G     E7   A   Asus A Asus
An lay down my sundown in some starry field
 D                  G     D
Oh, but I miss her in the mornin, when I awake alone
 D                  G       D
And the absence of her laughter is a cold and empty sound
 D                        G   D
But her memory always makes me smile and I want you to know
 D                G        D
I love her, yes I love her just enough to let her go
 G            D
I think Id rather be a cowboy
 G             D
I think Id rather ride the range
 G            D
I think Id rather be a cowboy
 A           Asus       D
Than to lay me down in love and ladys chains
