[Am] [A]

[B] [Am]
[E] [G]
[Em] [Am]
It's a long dark dirty road, [F] a rock full [C] of gold
And [E] I've been out here now, [Am] all on my own
Well it's real quiet here, [F] just the [C] way I like it here
[E] There's no one bothering me except [Am] for 1955
Born [F]
[C] to a dean of his [E] pride, I laid my head on [Am] that metal concrete bed
When I was a young man, [F] helping [C] this land
Oh [E] I put down these rails as [Am] a CPR man
Thought I'd live [A] forever, [F] with my [C] heart in my pocket
Oh [E] my God, by my side, my [Am] feelings in a locket
Well that was a cold year, [F] in [C] 77
But [E] I married my wife, we had two kids
I [Am] gave her a daughter, [F] she gave [C] me a son
And we [E] rode those damn horses [Am] until we had none
Fear still I fly in, [F] doing things [C] for diet
No [E] I should have put that old gun [Am] away
[E]
But [F] I, [G] I am a broken [Am] cowboy
[F] And I [C]
don't feel right [E] no more
[F] Cause I
[G] am a broken [Am] cowboy

[E] [Am]
Living life in the fast lane, [F] racing cars [C] and robbing trains
[E] Thought I had it all, and then [Am] one day I got the call
Father's worst dream, [F] my son [C] went down
And [E] I, [E]
[Am] the colors deceive me
[F] Cause I [C] see gray, oh [E] yeah
Going down with those, [Am] cold words you're saying
Then you call me brother, [F] but this [C] can't be so
Cause [E] you slammed up my name, and [Am] it went, went, went black
[F]
[E] Oh, [Am]
[A] [F] I, [G] I am a broken [Am] cowboy
[F] And I [C] don't feel right [E] no more
