Willie Nelson - My Heros Have Always Been Cowboys

I ^Dgrew up dreaming of being a cowboy And ^Gloving the cowboy ^Dways. P^Dursuing the life of my high riding heroes I ^E7 burned up my childhood ^A7days.

I ^Dlearned all the rules of a modern day drifter Don`t^G you hold on to nothing^D too long Just ^Gtake what you need from the ^Dladies and ^Gleave them With the ^Dwords of a ^A7sad country ^Dsong.

My ^Gheroes have always been ^Dcowboys ^E7And they still are it ^A7seems ^GSadly in search of and ^Done step in ^Gback of Them^Dselves and their ^A7slow moving ^Ddreams.

Co^Dwboys are special with their own brand of misery From ^Gbeing alone too l^Dong. Y^Dou could die from the cold in the arms of a nightmare K^E7nowing well that your best days are ^A7gone

P^Dicking up hookers instead of my pen I let the ^Gwords of my youth fade ^Daway. ^GOld worn out saddles and ^Dold worm out ^Gmemories With no ^Done and ^A7no place to ^Dstay.
