CAPO: 1st FRET; KEY: G#5 ; 
PLAY: 
G5 

G5                C5
a campfire, some coffee
       G5             G5 
From a tin cup in my hand
C5                                          G5 
Sure warms the fingers when it's G cold ...
G5            C5 
a-playin' an old guitar
A5 G5            G5 
friend I under- stand
A5                               D5       D5 
Sure smoothes the wrinkles in my soul ...
A5 G5              C5 
 sleepin' in the moonlight
A5 G5            G5 
blanket for my bed
C5                               G5       G5  
Leaves a peaceful feelin' in my mind ...
G5                C5 
Wakin' up in the mornin'
           G5          E5  
   with an eagle over- head
         G5             D5       D5       G5 
Makes me want to fly a- way be- fore my time  
 
CHORUS 
            G5                 G5      C5
And I think God must be a cow- boy at heart
        D5         D5              G5        D5 
He made wide open spaces from the start ...
        G5                        G5 
He made grass and trees and moun-tains
         C5  
   And a horse to be a friend
    D5                      D5          G5       G5 
And trails to lead old cow-boys home a-gain ... 
C5
Night life and big cities 
      G5                G5
Is al-right for awhile
C5                                    G5        G5 
Sure makes you feel good when you're there ...
        C5 
But the country's so pretty
        G5             E5 
It goes on and on for miles
A5                             D5        D5 
 takes away my troubles and my cares ... 
 
CHORUS 
    D5                      D5          G5
And trails to lead old cow-boys home a-gain.
