I've known him several years, he plays up here in this area all the time.
He's got a good band out, Chancy Williams and the Younger Brothers Band.
And they're playing around here somewhere every night, but
I was out having a beer with him when we got in town last night.
And he goes, man, is there any way I could come out and
say you should have been [B] a Cowboy, it's James Brody.
[N] I said, y'all make state, welcome to state, Chancy Williams, [G] come here, son.
Great man, hard working cowboy.
What's up, son?
[D] [G] [D] I'm [G]
[D] gonna sing [G] a song with you today.
[D] [G] [D] Hey, let's show them what [G] we sound like.
[D] [G] I bet [D] you never heard old Paul show [G] him and say,
this kid [D] you ever thought of running away.
[G] Settle down, baby, [D] man, hit [C] my ass [D] twice and [G] make me free.
[D] I [C] can't [D] stand dancing [G] in New [Bm] York, man,
ain't [C] you never turned [D] up, [G] it's all over, man.
Snow kiss says it all, she never [C] hung herself.
[G] And if I [C] do, what you say, [G] I should have been a cowboy.
[G]
[D] [G] I should have been a real man.
We've been riding since you ran, ran from me, you can't die.
I said, [D] [C]
[D] [G] I rolled [D] a [G] 17,
[D] Lord, [G] say a girl can't buy [C] a song, [D] I [G] should have been a cowboy.
Might have [D] had a sidekick with a funny name,
[G] running [D] wild through the [G] hills chasing just [D] a game.
[G] [D] Ended [G] up on a [D] rank of [G] major,
[D] I'm a shotgun, [G] with a Texas Ranger, no, [D] that's young man.
Haven't you been [G] broke, [D] California's full [E] of escape,
[D] women [G] folks, they bring [D] out all [G] night,
the music [D] they'll hear at [G] dawn, [D] dreaming, [C] man, and praying.
Man, take it easy, I [G] should have been [D] a cowboy.
[G] Come on, Johnny, I should have been a real man.
I've been here since you ran, ran from me, you can't die.
I still have the young girl's thoughts,
[D] 17, [G]
[D] Lord, [G] singing those [D] can't buy [G] songs.
I should have been a cowboy, cowboy.

[D] [G] With my sexy ride, my pony on the cattle drive.
Feeling the [D] young girl's [C] heart, [D] [G] [D] just like [G] teen, oh.
