A Cowboy On Letting Go by Kody Lamb
A Cowboy On Letting Go
Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo: 1st fret
Key: Cm
[Intro]
Bm Bm Bm Bm
[Verse 1]
Bm
I held on tight for all my life
G
Like cowboys always do
D
I rode in sun and rain
A
And a blizzard once in June
Bm
You can call me the weatherman
G
Cause I live for the storm
D
No matter what the forecast
A
I always rolled with vintage form
[Solo]
| Bm | Bm | Bm | Bm
[Verse 2]
G
Oh and anytime anything my life got hard
D
I’d stuck my hat down low
A
And I’d spur with all my heart
Bm
Yeah there weren’t no bronc I couldn’t ride
G
No battle I could lose
D
With an iron grip my fingertips
A
And lightning in my shoes
[Verse 3]
Bm
All but that was till I met you girl
G
And I watched it all go as I was thrown
D A
My high horse and I fell like the Alamo
Bm
Aw, but now you’re gone and now I’m alone
G
And I hold on to your ghost
D
Cause letting slip with a cowboy loves
A Bm
Is what kills him the most
[Solo]
| Bm | Bm | Bm | Bm
[Chorus]
G
Now, I’m about to learn a lesson
D
They don’t teach in cowboy school
G
Sometimes growing up a cowboy
D
Means growing up a fool
G D Bm
Easy holding on till the whistle blow-ow-ows
D A
But the hardest part of a cowboys life
A Bm
Is learning to let go
[Solo]
| Bm | Bm | Bm |
[Verse 4]
Bm
There’s an old cowboy on the road tonight
G
He’s battered bruised and beat
D
His hearts growing weary
A
And there’s a slowing in his feet
Bm
He’s held on tight to steering wheels
G
And miles and years slid by
D A
He knows he can’t take too much more
A
It’s hang it up or die
[Verse 5]
Bm
Well, he remembers them long years ago
G
Faster feet and brighter lights
D
The sweet memory of victory
A
Still haunts him late at night
Bm
And he needs to taste it one last time
G
Like an addict with a past
D
But the only light shines on him now
A
Is telling him he’s out of gas
[Verse 6]
Bm
And his bed it sleeps so cold at night
G
Cause he’s lost more than his youth
D
He’s held on so damn long
A
He can’t remember what he’s holding on too
Bm
His best days are behind him now
G
And the storm is up ahead
D
And we’ll only fall in love
A Bm
With what it will leave us in the end
[Solo]
| Bm | Bm | Bm | Bm
[Chorus]
G
Now I guess we all gotta learn a lesson
D
They don’t teach in cowboy school
G
Cause sometimes growing old a cowboy
D
Means growing old a fool
G D Bm
It’s easy holding on till the whistle blow-ow-ows
D A
But the hardest part of a cowboy’s life
D A
Yeah, the hardest part of a cowboy’s life
D A
Yeah, the hardest part of a cowboy’s life
Bm
Is learning to let go
[Outro]
