Cowboy Scale Of 1 To 10 chords by Cody Johnson

🎸 Intro:

G7  D7  A7  D7



🎸 Verse 1:
  D7
If there ever was a way to rate a man
   G7
On a cowboy scale of one to ten
    A7
Kinda like you would a women or a chili pepper
 G7
A one ain’t hot, but a ten’ll stop your ticker
     D7
It’d be based on courage and attitude
     G7
Not the band on the hat or the bling on the boot
   A7
Less about the out, more about the within
     G7
On this cowboy scale of one to ten
🎸 Interlude:
G7  D7  A7  D7

🎸 Verse 2:
        D7
Now take the pretty boy over at the bar for example
   G7
His Resistol’s huge and his B.S. is ample
       A7
But I got a feelin’ he’s nev r stepped in none
      G7
And on th? cowboy scale that puts him down around a one
          D7
Now the guy in the ball cap, the t-shirt, and dirty ol’ jeans
    G7
Got a dozen gold buckles that you’ll probably never see
      A7
‘Cause he really don’t give a damn what you think he is
     G7         D7
On your cowboy scale of one to ten

🎸 Chorus:
 G7    D7    A7     D7
Some ride bulls and some ride fences
G7    D7  E7    A7
Some ride off into that sunset
G7     D7     Bm  A   G
Some drive cattle and some drive Chevy’s
E7          A7
But they all drive them ladies crazy

🎸 Interlude:

🎸 Verse 3:
     D7
Now the cowgirls, boys, they’re the ones who know
     G7
The real deal from ol’ Ricky Rodeo
       A7
Cause let me tell ya fellas, ’til they see you ride
        G7
They’ll never give you more than a four, maybe five
       D7
Now not all cowboys hail from the Lonestar state
    G7
California
Alaska to Canada, eh?
       A7
I even know a few hippies, long hair and tattoos
   G7             A7
That sure are some tough mother buckaroos

🎸 Chorus:
 G7    D7    A7    D7
Some ride bulls and some ride fences
G7    D7  E7    A7
Some ride off into that sunset

But they all drive them ladies crazy

🎸 Verse 4:
     D7
So if ya ever took a big ol’ dip of Copenhagen
     G7
Started barroom brawls or just participated
     A7
Know a quarter horse can’t be started with a coin
G7
Y’ain’t quite there yet, boys, but you’re getting warm
D7
  I’ve been around some, and I’d like to say
    G7
If you really wanna know who’s the real John Wayne
               A7
Well, that’s the folks who serve and protect this great land

And on the cowboy scale
     G7
That’s a top drawer ten
