G                   D
If I was a gambling man, 
C
never would have let you play your hand
         G           D           C
with the broken down cowboy like me
G                            D
Cos you never can trust your luck
C
he's bad news in a pickup truck
   G           D           C
a broken down cowboy like me
G                    D
He played every card he's got 
C
had a good hand but he messed it up
         G           D           C
with that bummer down tumbled down hard
G                     D
saddled banks for the pain 
C
carries them around just like her middle name
G               D            C
a losing streak play them or dont

C

   G           D           C

a broken down cowboy like me
