I am [Gm] a cowboy, you ask [D] how I know.
I live my life [G] just to tame and [D] grow coals.
Traveling this [Gm] country and living my [D] dream.
Like the wild horses, [Gm] I have [D] to be free.
Good Lord above sent [G] down his [D] only son.
Here on this [G] earth, there was work left [D] undone.
A great big old [G] roundup was what God [D] had planned.
For this mighty task, [G] he called [D] his best hand.
I live my life [G] just to tame and [D] grow coals.
Traveling this [Gm] country and living my [D] dream.
Like the wild horses, [Gm] I have [D] to be free.
Good Lord above sent [G] down his [D] only son.
Here on this [G] earth, there was work left [D] undone.
A great big old [G] roundup was what God [D] had planned.
For this mighty task, [G] he called [D] his best hand.
