I Am Not The Only Cowboy by Josh Joplin Group
I Am Not The Only Cowboy
Capo:no capo
Standard Tuning
G 320033
Cadd9 x32033
D xx0232
G
And it starts like this we crave to be kissed
Cadd9
by a moment complete in its happiness
G
Far away from the things that we wish to escape
Cadd9
that lead us to think we are not awake
G
We are ourselves despite ourselves
Cadd9
this place gets smaller as the universe swells
G Cadd9
We come to terms eventually, eventually, eventually.
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
I am not the only cowboy in this one horse metaphor
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
And I am not the only life guard who's washed up on the shore
CHORUS:
D D
Wake me up take me out
C D
Calm me down when I'm in doubt
D Cadd9
And I'm in doubt
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
Everyday
G Cadd9
And words are like weight with density and shape modifying forms they evaporate
G
You can choose the truth you can listen to light
Cadd9
you can lead the charge and still loose the fight
G
Far be it for me to claim anything
Cadd9
for I am just one in a state of being
G Cadd9
I come to terms eventually, eventually, eventually
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
I am not the only proverb that never really fits
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
And I am not the only Caulfield who's catching more than kids
CHORUS
G Cadd9
And so it ends as it begins as everything that is infinite ascends
G Cadd9
Into it's time all things pass all things fade all things last
G
You are yourself despite yourself
Cadd9
this world grows smaller as the universe swells
G Cadd9
We come to terms eventually, eventually, eventually
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
I am not the only boxer that hasn't words to write
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
And I am not the only poet who's much too scared to fight
CHORUS
G
And it starts like this we crave to be kissed
Cadd9
by a moment complete in its happiness
G Cadd9
We are ourselves, eventually, eventually, eventually
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
I am not the only cowboy in this one horse metaphor
