Intro:         D5 G5 A5 D5   
VERSE: 
D5                            G5 
Some boys with warm beds and cold, cold hearts 
                             D5   
Can make you feel nothing at all 
             A5             G5  
They'll never remember and they'll never mind 
              C5                      G5  
If you're counting the cracks in the wall 
             D5                         G5  
They're quick and they're greedy, they never feel guilty          
                               D5  
They don't know the meaning of hurt 
       A5                      G5  
The boots just go back on the socks that had stayed on 
       C5                        G5     
The next time they see you they treat you like dirt 
       A5                           D5  
The next time they treat you like dirt 


       D5                      G5  
So don't come the cowboy with me Sonny Jim 
                                D5  
I know lots of those and you're not one of them 
                A5                   F5  
There's a light in your eyes sayin' somebody's in 
                A5                  D5 
And you won't come the cowboy with me  
 

G5    D5  
 
 
VERSE: 
D5                        G5  
Don't be too rough on my cold, cold heart 
                             D5  
It's all I've got left to me now 
   A5                     G5  
I fell out of favor with heaven somewhere 
        C5                       G5  
And I'm here for the hell of it now. 
D5                           G5 
Some girls play cowboys and some boys play harder to get 
                         D5  
But they're got just the same 
     A5                                G5  
They smile and say cheese, they're so eager to please 
            C5                   G5  
But they'll never remember your name 
       A5                     D5  
The names and the places all change 
 
CHORUS: 
       D5                         G5  
So don't come the cowboy with me Sonny Jim 
                                D5  
I know lots of those and you're not one of them 
          A5                         F5  
There's a light in your eyes sayin' somebody's in 
        A5                                              
And you won't come the cowboy with me 
 
BREAK: 
D5 G5 D5 A5 F5 A5 D5  
VERSE: 
    D5                     G5  
Did somebody tell you I'm lonely as hell? 
                       D5  
I didn't expect you to know me so well 
   A5                          G5  
If I've learned a lesson it's how to bounce back again 
 

C5                          G5  
Sometimes I bounce off the wall 
        A5                      D5  
And sometimes my head hits the floor 
 
    CHORUS: 
   D5                          G5  
So don't come the cowboy with me Sonny Jim 
                                D5  
I know lots of those and you're not one of them 
          A5                         F5  
There's a light in your eyes sayin' somebody's in 
        A5                                         
And you won't come the cowboy  
 

    D5                          G5  
Oh, Don't come the cowboy with me Sonny Jim 
                                D5  
I know lots of those and you're not one of them 
          A5                         F5  
There's a light in your eyes sayin' somebody's in 
                                   D5 
And you won't come the cowboy with me 
 

D5 G5 A5 D5
