     C
I've been walkin' these streets so long

Singin' the same old song
                        G
I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway
   F
Where hustle's the name of the game
                          C  C F/C
And nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain
        G
There's been a load of compromisin'
    F       C
On the road to my horizon
  F           D     F     G
But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me

    F  G   C   F/C
Like a rhinestone cowboy
              Cmaj7     F  G
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
    F  G   C   F/C
Like a rhinestone cowboy
                Cmaj7     F  G
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
         F    C
And offers comin' over the phone

    C
Well, I really don't mind the rain

And a smile can hide all the pain
                                G
But you're down when you're ridin' the train that's takin' the long way
   F
And I dream of the things I'll do
                         C  C F/C
With a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe
       G
There's be a load of compromisin'
    F       C
On the road to my horizon
  F           D     F     G
But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me

    F  G   C   F/C
Like a rhinestone cowboy
              Cmaj7     F  G
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
    F  G   C   F/C
Like a rhinestone cowboy
                Cmaj7     F  G
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
         F    C
And offers comin' over the phone

    F  G   C   F/C
Like a rhinestone cowboy
              Cmaj7     F  G
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
    F  G   C   F/C
Like a rhinestone cowboy
                Cmaj7     F  G
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know . . .
