Am F C Am C   x2
Am
Rode hard and put up wet
F
I aimed down, but I can't get up yeah
C                                       Am     C
It's a long ride back to the way I want to feel
Am
Sundown across the plain
F
I've been sore before, I'll be sore again
C                                Am  C
No place to hide to keep from running

Am
Laid down in a cottonwood hallow
F
I left the trail, no man could follow
C                                       Am  C
Is it safe to rest my head again till morning?
Am
Cracked throat and my canteen's dry
F
And rain don't fall from an empty sky
C                                     Am      C
So I'll whisper Hail Marys till the sun comes up

          F
Now don't tell me that part of the story when
    C               C
The cowboy falls in love
          F
When it's raining in his pistol
        C               C
And his saddle, and the stars above

         C                C
When the candle's burnin' down
         C              F
And when midnight comes around
            C                C
Now all the best that we can hope for
           F
Is to be laughing when we finally hit the ground

Am
Rode hard and come down tired
F
Stripped from the saddle when the eye of the fire
C                                    Am  C
And deep in dreams of women in clean water
Am
And I did before what I'll do again
F
So forgive me father if I have sinned
C                          Am      C
But the old wood cracks, before it bends
     
          F
Now don't tell me that part of the story when
    C               C
The cowboy falls in love
          F
When it's raining in his pistol
        C               C
And his saddle, and the stars above

         C               C
When the candle's burnin down
         C              F
And when midnight comes around
            C                C
Now all the best that we can hope for
           F
Is to be laughing when we finally hit the ground

Solo

          F

            C                C
Now all the best that we can hope for
           F
Is to be laughing when we finally hit yeah

         C               C
When the candle's burnin down
         C              F
And when midnight comes around
