[Verse]

A As4 A As4
I've been walking these streets so long
A As4 A As4
Singing the same old song
A As4 A As4 E Es4 E Es4
I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway
D Ds4 D Ds4
Where hustle is the name of the game
D Ds4 D Ds4 A As4 A As4
And nice guys get washed a- way / Like the snow and the rain
E Es4 E Es4
There's been a load of compro-mising
D Ds4 A
On the road to my ho- rizon
D B E/D E (tacet)
And I'm gonna be where the lights are shining on me

[Chorus]

D E A As4 A
Like a Rhinestone Cowboy
Amaj7 A6 Bm E
Riding out on a horse in a star spangled rodeo
D E A As4 A
Like a Rhinestone cowboy
Amaj7 A6 Bm
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
Bm D E D E
And offers coming over the phone

[Verse]

A As4 A As4
I really don't mind the rain
A As4 A As4
And smiles can hide all the pain
A As4 A As4
But you're down and you're riding the train
E Es4 E Es4
That's taking the long way
D Ds4 D Ds4
And I dream of the things I'll do
D Ds4 D Ds4 A As4 A As4
With a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe
E Es4 E Es4
There'll be a load of compro-mising
D Ds4 A
On the road to my ho- rizon
D B E/D E (tacet)
And I'm gonna be where the lights are shining on me

[Chorus]

D E A As4 A
Like a Rhinestone Cowboy
Amaj7 A6 Bm E
Riding out on a horse in a star spangled rodeo
D E A As4 A
Like a Rhinestone cowboy
Amaj7 A6 Bm
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
Bm D E
And offers coming over the phone
