A G
I am an old cowboy
D
I don't ride much no more
A G
I came to this valley
D
right after the war
Bm G
and I used to shoe horses
D
and there's some saddles I built
A G
and I've rode after cattle
D
all over these hills
verse 2
A G
Started out at the pitchfork
D
when I was thirteen
A G
Riding young horses
D
riding my dreams
Bm G
and them old hands they taught me
D
all it takes is some nerve
A G
just throw a leg over and ride what you ride
D
for all that it's worth

A G
Some folks regret
D
the lives that they lead
Bm G
they stare out the window

they yearn to be free

I live the life
Bm G
that was given to me
D
and I threw a leg over
A Bm G
and rode it for all it was worth
D A
Yes I rode it
G D
for all it was worth
verse 3
A G
I was blue eyed and windburned
D
I was every girl's dream
A G
Wild steers on the mountain
D
where the butt brush was green
Bm G
and though some days were dark ones
D
when that old north wind blew
A G
I just gathered my reigns
D
and I rode it through
verse 4
A G
Time comes creeping
D
to wipe out your tracks
A G
but if your trail's been a good one
D
you don't mind looking back
Bm G
Dreams are like horses
D
they roam wild on the earth
A G
catch one and ride it
D
for all that it's worth
