Key: C
Introduction:
C
I' ve been walking these streets so long
Singing the same old song
G ( G4 G)
I know every crack in the dirty sidewalks of Broadway
F
Where hustle is the name of the game
Dm F C
And nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain
G
There' s been a load of compromising
F C
On the road to my horizon
F Dm G ( Dm G)
But I' m gonna be where the lights are shining on me
F G C ( F C)
Like a rhinestone cowboy
C7M Am7 Dm G
Riding out on a horse in a star spangled rodeo
F G C ( F C)
Like a rhinestone cowboy
C7M Am7 Dm
Getting cards & amp letters from people I don' t even know
F
And offers coming over the phone
C
I really don' t mind the rain
and smiles can hide all the pain
G
You' re down while taking the train that' s taking the long way
F
And I dream of things I' ll do
Dm F C
With a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe
G
There' ll been a load of compromising
F C
On the road to my horizon
F Dm G ( Dm G)
But I' m gonna be where the lights are shining on me
F G C ( F C)
Like a rhinestone cowboy
C7M Am7 Dm G
Riding out on a horse in a star spangled rodeo
F G C ( F C)
Like a rhinestone cowboy
C7M Am7 Dm
Getting cards & amp letters from people I don' t even know
F
And offers coming over the phone
F G C ( F C)
Like a rhinestone cowboy
C7M Am7 Dm G
Riding out on a horse in a star spangled rodeo
F G C ( F C)
Like a rhinestone cowboy
C7M Am7 Dm
Getting cards & amp letters from people I don' t even know
F
And offers coming over the phone
