  D                             D                 G                 D

  Pushin' horns weren't easy like the movie said it was

                              D                          A

  A7

  and I don't recall no dance hall girls or hotel rooms with rugs.

                   D

  You worked hot and tired and nasty,

                G                     D

  rode your pony's head too low.

                                            A

  There were all the nights you couldn't sleep

           G

  cause it was too damn cold;

                         D              A                      D

  and you'd sing "Strawberry Roan and "Little Joe".

  D                                D                 G                 D

  Like the time we hit the river and the rain began to fall;

                                     D                       A

  A7

  and the water was risin' so damn fast we thought it'd drown us all.

        D                                           G                      D

  We lost a lot of steers that day and four or five good mounts.

                                         A             G

  But when all the boys rode into camp we knew that's what counts;

                      D               A                           D

  and we sang "Yippee Tiyiyay" amd "Amazing Grace";

           Bm                                               G               D

  or the night they broke behind us and then took us by surprise.

                          D                       A               A7

  I whistled out to Bonner I seen the terror in his eyes.

             D                   D7                            G

  D

  And he rode for all his horse would ride and I know he done his best.

                               A                 G

  But he crossed over Jordan ridin' Dunny to his death.

                      D                    A

  D

  And we sang "Bringing in the Sheaves" and "The Rugged Cross".

  D                              D                    G                   D

  So when you see the cowboy he's not ragged by his choice.

                             D                                       A

  A7

  He never meant to bow those legs or put that gravel in his voice.

               D                                                      G

  D

  He's just chasin' what he really loves and what's burnin' in his soul.

                              A                       G

  Wishin' to God that he'd been born a hundred years ago.

                    D             A                        D

  Still singin' "Strawberry Roan" and "Little Joe".

  

  

  

  This sounds right to me.  Enjoy!  toughjeep@aol.com
