C
i was mindin’ my business and holdin’ the fort
F
and i still remember how you sallied forth
C
and my mind , it was busy , warnin’ my heart
F Fm C
but , hell , you ain’t a cowboy if you ain’t been bucked off

the story’s familiar , the oldest tale in the west
F
i fell into love then the bird left the nest
C
well i guess that there’s reasons we let our hard hearts go soft
F Fm C
and you ain’t a cowboy if you ain’t been bucked off

F C
there’s all kinds of horses will leave you grabbin’ the breeze
F C
busted up and broken up with scars you can’t see
Fm C
but if you ain’t been bucked off and been throwed a few times
Fm C
it don’t count for nothin’ when you make that last ride
