Cowboy Chords
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You could say I reached that time I know my trade
And that I know how to care for my guitar
And I know how to get it played
I'm comfortable and I sleep on a floor
I've played a fair few shows
And I'm gonna play more
And all along the while I was just trying to make people smile
I play cowboy chords
For these air conditioned words
About longing for the prairie and living in the suburbs
I sing simple songs
About rights and wrongs
About finding that trail that leads away from everyone
And darling I know I did not give you much
I got hungry for some wandering
And I don't come back for months
And I kept your picture by my side
It's in my wallet, it's on my mind
And every song I know contains a whisper of your soul
I play cowboy chords
For these air conditioned words
About longing for the prairie and living in the suburbs
I sing simple songs
About rights and wrongs
About finding that trail that leads away from everyone
And so my days slip away
They're all the same
Rolling wheels, hotel rooms
And going grey
Casting glances over my shoulders as I go
Trying not to dwell on things I do not know
I know my trade out on these boards, cowboy chords
I know my trade out on these boards, cowboy chords
I know my trade out on these boards, cowboy chords
I know my trade out on these boards, cowboy chords
