Introdução:
D A
I was born and raised in the red clay hills of Texas
D
In the land where the grass gets only beer can tall
G
Thats where I learned to cuss and fight and chew Brown Mule Tobacco
Em A
Fix windmills fore I was five years old
G D
I rode every head of stock from the Gulf to Kansas City
A
Runnin wild is all Ive ever known
G D
But this cowboys got a weakness for Tight Levis and Yellow Ribbons
G A D
And theres somethin bout em I cant leave alone
Chorus
G A D
Tight Levis and Yellow Ribbons make a cowboy swim a river
G A D
That before he jumps, he knows is way too wide
G A D
And theyll make him throw a saddle on a bronc hes never seen
G A D
And one he knows hell never break to ride
D A
I met her at a rodeo in Douglas, Arizona
D
Id drawn the rankest horse a man could draw
Well, I rode him tall and spurred him high
G
And when I made the whistle
A
The crowd went wild but she was all I saw
G D
That night we had a beer or two with friends of mine from Dallas
D
She smiled and said she loved the Texas drawl
G D
And I felt like Roy Rogers did in all those cowboy movies
G A G A D
?Cuz I became the hero, got the money, girl and all
Chorus
G A D
Tight Levis and Yellow Ribbons make a cowboy swim a river
G A D
That before he jumps, he knows is way too wide
G A D
And theyll make him throw a saddle on a bronc hes never seen
G A D
And one he knows hell never break to ride
