Verse 1:
C#5 E5 B5 F#5
On that very first day, the Lord sat down and saw fit to say
C#5 E5 B5 F#5
"Let there be light!" so he could tell the day time from the night
C#5 E5 B5 F#5
And then he spoke again, felt the wind come rolling in
C#5 E5 B5 F#5
Smelt the rain, it soaked everything
Prechorus 1:
B5 B5
And then the mountains rose up, across the Great Plains
B5 G#5
And all the angels up in Heaven started singing,
"All it's missing is a pretty thing"
Chorus:
C#5 E5
Let there be cowgirls for every cowboy
B5 F#5 C#5
Make 'em strong as any man, Lordy
E5 B5
Something you can't tame, she's a mustang
F#5
The heartbeat of the heartland
C#5
She's got a drawl, ya'll,
E5 B5 F#5 E-F#5 E-F#5
Yeah, she's the salt of the earth that rocks my world
E C#5 E5 B5 F#5
Let there be cowgirls, come on
C#5 E5 B5 F#5
Verse 2:
C#5 E5 B5 F#5
He made me back in '68, the first time I met her I was nearly eight
C#5 E5 B5 F#5
And she was ten, her name was little KayLynn
C#5 E5
She was born to a farmer who was friends with my father,
B5 F#5
I was in love with the sharecropper's only daughter
C#5 E5 B5 F#5
Thought I was in, he made me think again
Prechorus 2:
B5 B5
But when I turned 16, I thought it couldn't get worse
B5 G#5
I saw her riding on a horse and fell in love so bad it hurt
Chorus:
C#5 E5
Let there be cowgirls for every cowboy
B5 F#5 C#5
Make 'em strong as any man, Lordy
E5 B5
Something you can't tame, she's a mustang
F#5
The heartbeat of the heartland
C#5
She's got a drawl, ya'll,
E5 B5 F#5 E-F#5 E-F#5
Yeah, she's the salt of the earth that rocks my world
