A            E     F#m     E            D
I am just a cowboy     lonesome on the trail
A               E                   F#m   E    D
a STARRY night,   the CAMPFIRE light
A               E                       F#m    E    D
The coyote call,  and the howling winds wail
A                E           F#m     E     D
So I'll ride out   to the old sundown

A             E   F#m     E            D
I am just a cowboy   lonesome on the trail
A                E                      F#m   E   D
Lord, I'm just thinking about a certain female
A                      E       F#m          E           D
The nights we spent together        riding on the RANGE
A        E   F#m       E   D
Looking back it seems so strange

D                C#m7
Roll me over and turn me around
Bm7                          A
Let me keep spinning till I hit the ground
D                C#m7
Roll me over and let me go
Bm7            A
Riding in the rodeo

A              E    F#m          E        D
I was took in Texas   I did not know her name
A                 E            F#m           E  D
Lord, all these southern girls seem the same
A                E          F#m         E  D
Down below the border in a town in Mexico
A         E            F#m             E  D
I got my job busting broncs for the rodeo

D                 C#m7
Roll me over and turn me around
Bm7                          A
Let me keep spinning till I hit the ground
D                C#m7
Roll me over and let me go
Bm7                    A
Running free with the buffalo
Here I go
(solo)
A  E  F#m   E  D
A  E  F#m   E  D
D   C#m7  Bm7 A
D   C#m7  Bm7 A

Roll me over and I'll turn around
And I'll move my fingers up and down
Up and down

It's ok amigos
Just let me go
Riding in the rodeo

Roll me over and turn me around
Let me keep spinning till i hit the ground
Roll me over and let me go
Riding in the rodeo
Roll me over and set me free
The cowboy's life is the life for me
