🎸 Verse 1:
           G
They were made to ride and ramble
           G
They were made for desert stars
     Em7
They ain't broke in 'til they've broken
       Em7
A few horses and some hearts
         D
Kickin' dust up instead of habits
          D
Got some bad ones they should lose
         C                D6     G
That's why they call 'em cowboy boots

           G
They were made to count a band off
  G
Two-step across the floor
      Em7
Push down on a throttle
        Em7
Hide a bottle, kick down doors
         D
They'll make you feel ten feet tall
     D
And cool like Chris LeDoux

Stomp out a cigarette

     Em7
So I ain't hung mine up yet
         D
They're good at holdin' ground

These ropers ain't got roots
