Tom : C
C F C F
[Verse]
C F
When I was young and just a boy
C F
I Had myself a dream
C G Am
I'd get a horse and ride the range
F G
With Roy and Gene
C F
We'd save the girl in the nick of time
C F
And have the fastest guns
C G Am
Sing a song while the credits rolled
F G
And disappear into the setting sun
F C
I didn't want to play football
F C
Or be a business man
F C F G
All I ever really wanted to do was play in a cowboy band
[Chorus]
F
So give me a guitar
C
And some shined up boots
F C
And I'll show you where I stand
[Próxima Parte]
F C Am
Somewhere out on the Navajo trail
F G C
Playin' in a cowboy band
F C F
[Verse]
C F
When I was nine I stood in line
C F
To see Merle and The Strangers play
C G Am
But when the show was over and the lights went down
F G
I climbed up on that stage
C F
I looked at all those vacant seats
C F
and I just had to smile
C G Am
'Cause I knew one day that I would play
F G
and they'd be dancin' in the aisles
[Chorus]
[Próxima Parte]
F C Am
Somewhere out on the lone prarie
F G C
Playin' in a cowboy band
F C F
[Bridge]
Am F C
Listen to the rhythm of the bass and drums

[Chorus]
[Próxima Parte]

Somewhere out on the stage tonight
F G C
Playin' in a cowboy band

And I just might be in your hometown tonight

Playin' in a cowboy band
