G       D             Em         D
I took her daddy’s old two–horse trailer 
            C                            D
I patched a place in the floor that was bare 
       G         D          Em      D
And we loaded up her barrel pony 
      Am                         D
And a riggin’ bag is all that I had 
   C                       G
We left with our suitcases filled with desire 
C                     D
Four hundred dollars, two good spare tires 

(Chorus)
        G              D             Em            C
Now our windshield’s a painting that hangs in our room 
   G            D                Em     C
It changes with each mile like a radio tune 
   C       D           G          C
With God up above, we’ll make it on love 
Am         D     G
Under the rodeo moon 

Pre–verse: G D Em D C D G

Sometimes we sleep in a hotel 
When we’re ridin’ that hot hand of luck 
Sometimes we crash at a friend’s house 
Sometimes we just sleep in the truck 
At nighttime you’ll find us out in the fast lane 
Stayin’ one step ahead of snow, wind, and rain 

(Chorus)

Instrumental: G D Em D C D | G D Em A D

(Bridge)
C                               G
Yeah we left with our suitcases filled with desire
C                     D
Four hundred dollars, two good spare tires 

(Chorus)
Am         D     G
Under the rodeo moon
