A E
He's been known to lose more than he wins
D A
He falls down just to get back up again
E
And when he smiles his face is weathered and leathered and lined
D E
You can tell he?s learned to laugh thru a lot of hard times
A
He gets by without shoving a drifter and a dreamer
D D7 B
Born to roam rolls his own what you get is what you see here
A E
Once a cowboy always a cowboy
F#m D
Between the blue sky and unbroken ground he wears his freedom like a crown
A E
Let the whole world around him change that don?t mean a thing
D A
Once a cowboy always a cowboy
E
She tries to tell him he?s running outta time
D A
But that ain?t what you?d see if you were looking thru his eyes
E
He?s still chasing sunsets still trying to find
D E
Something better than what he left behind
A
She tries to love him but somehow she understands
D D7 B
That it was over the moment it began
A E
Once a cowboy always a cowboy
F#m D
Between the blue sky and unbroken ground he wears his freedom like a crown
A E
Let the whole world around him change that don?t mean a thing
D A
Once a cowboy always a cowboy
[Instrumental]
