Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
D/F# G x4


Verse 1:
 D/F#     G    D/F#  G
When I was six, I had two fourty-fives
 D/F#       G      D/F#  G
Strapped to my hips, wanted dead or alive
   D/F#     G      D/F#
And all of the kids thought that I was a
G      G/B
good guy at heart

Verse 2:
   D/F#       G    D/F#
When I got to high school, not much really
G
changed

 D/F#      G     D/F#   G
I ran from the cops, in my souped Mustang
   D/F#    G         D/F#
And all of the girls thought that I was a
G      G/B
good guy at heart


Chorus:
   G      D/F#
And I ride like a thief on the run
   G       D/F#
And I hide from the things that I've done
    G      D/F#
And I fly like the wind to the sunset
 G            D/F#
Just like a cowboy should do
 G            D/F#
Just like a cowboy should do


Instrumental:
D/F# G x4

D/F#      G    D/F#      G
Girl I will love you the best that I can
  D/F#    G      D/F#     G
But you need to know that I ain't what I am
   D/F#   G    D/F#    G
I'm not a bad guy but I'm not a good guy at
G/B
heart


Chorus:
G          D/F#
And I ride like a thief on the run
 G         D/F#
Say goodbye to the things that I've done
 G         D/F#
And I fly like the wind to the sunset
 G         D/F#
Just like a cowboy should do
 G         D/F#
Just like a cowboy should do


Verse 4:
 A               G
Wish I could tell you that I'll always stay
 A            G
But I can't help it, God made me this way
   A             G
And I know that there'll come a day


Chorus:
    G      D/F#
When I ride like a thief on the run
   G       D/F#
Say goodbye to the things that I've done
   G      D/F#

Just like a cowboy should do
