Cowboy Singer
CAPO: 3rd Fret
INTRO: C G C
F C
Seventeen years she's been in this world
G
Wide-eyed and wistful, pretty little Mormon girl
C F C
She don't know I'm wicked, and she don't know I'm old
G C
Sweet Jesus forgive me, but she gets in my soul
F G C
She believes in the future and the family tree
F C D G
And she thinks there's a little spark of good left in me
C F C
And she comes to my door, 'cause she thinks I can bring her
G C
The glamorous life of a cowboy singer
F C
I rise from my bed to her hand at the bell
G
I look like the devil and I'm feeling like hell
C F C
But she don't seem to notice, she just steps right inside
G C
For to sing me the song, she made up last night
F G C
And her voice is shining with the moon and the stars
F C D G
And she plays so unspoiled on that two-bit guitar
C F C
Singing, "Love" and "Tomorrow" and "Thank The Redeemer"
G C G C
And I doom and anoint her a 'Cowboy Singer'
F C
Alone in my room when she leaves me again
G
I stare at the wall and feel death closing in
C F C
But I like to imagine, I will meet her one day
G7 C
In a land at the end of this lonesome highway
F G C
In a fine high country, where the best songs are sung
F C D G
And the labels don't care if you're old or you're young
C F C
And the Martins are cheaper, and the pastures are greener
G C
And all of the angels are cowboy singers
G C
Oh, and all of the angels are cowboy singers
