Chords for Micky and The Motorcars "Rodeo Girl" LIVE on The Texas Music Scene

[D] _ Let's take y'all back to the 4th of July week 2018,
in the Backroads [G] Music Fest at Rockerby Ranch in Grapefruit, Texas
for [D] a performance of Rodeo Girl by Mickey and the Motorcars.
It was so epic, [A] that as soon as the last note of music was played,
the skies [D] ripped open and unloaded a torrential [G] downpour from the heavens.
Well, at least that's the [D] version of the story I dig.
[A] _ [D] Another song that I wrote with Gare, [G] he brought to me, he had the idea on it.
It's [D] called Rodeo Girl, a really cool song.
[A] I love the idea behind it.
I loved it [D] so much because I rode Saddlebrock horses [G] when I was in high school.
And [D] there was just a lot of people [A] that I was surrounded with [G] at the time
that were [D] really rodeo, cowboys, cowgirls.
And so it was easy for both of us, [G] because he rode horses a lot and had [D] a business.
_ [A] _
And so I think [D] between the two of us, to be able to put the two together,
where we [G] realized how much we loved [D] riding horses and [A] taking care of horses,
[D] and [A] people in general, it was just kind of an [D] easy ride for us.
[Ebm] Send this out to the cowboys and cowgirls out [C] there.
[N] My brother and Gary and [F] I did a little [G] rodeo in fact in the old days.
[N] It's called Rodeo Girl.
