(Capo on 3)

Intro:
|D MajorD |G+G | x 2

Verse 1:
D MajorD                    G+G
Broken bones and broken hearts and I?fve had my shoulder torn apart
    D MajorD                    G+G
But it nothing like the pain I felt when I lost you
D MajorD                   G+G
Honky-tonks and short brown checks and all those late nights I regret
   B minorBm                    A augmentedA
And I left you all alone crying wondering why I lay it all on the line

Chorus:
      D MajorD                     G+G
I've earned scars and I've earned buckles, been in the chutes with blood on my knuckles
      D MajorD                   A augmentedA
I've driven all night long trying to make a rodeo
          D MajorD                    G+G
I'm as strong as a freight train just as steady, crack the gates you know I'll be ready
       B minorBm     A augmentedA        G+G    A augmentedA
And I'm gonna hang on un- til the ride is through, because that's what cowboys do

Solo:
|D MajorD |G+G | x 2

Verse 2:
D MajorD                    G+G
Worn out duly full of whiskey dents, and memories of the times we spent
D MajorD                    G+G
A augmentedA million miles of black top that never lead me home to you
D MajorD                     G+G
Eight seconds of pain and fame, and these thoughts of you drive me insane
 B minorBm                    A augmentedA
I left you all alone crying wondering why I lay it all on the line

Chorus:
      D MajorD                     G+G
I've earned scars and I've earned buckles, been in the chutes with blood on my knuckles
      D MajorD                   A augmentedA
I've driven all night long trying to make a rodeo
          D MajorD                    G+G
I'm as strong as a freight train just as steady, crack the gates you know I'll be ready
       B minorBm     A augmentedA        G+G    A augmentedA
And I'm gonna hang on un- til the ride is through, because that's what cowboys do

Solo:
|D MajorD |G+G | x4

Bridge:
D MajorD                    G+G
One day when the glory's gone, and I?fve got no strength to carry on
B minorBm                    A augmentedA
I'll realize the only thing I should have held on to is you

Chorus:
      D MajorD                     G+G
I've earned scars and I've earned buckles, been in the chutes with blood on my knuckles
      D MajorD                   A augmentedA
I've driven all night long trying to make a rodeo
          D MajorD                    G+G
I'm as strong as a freight train just as steady, crack the gates you know I'll be ready
       B minorBm     A augmentedA        G+G    A augmentedA
And I'm gonna hang on un- til the ride is through, because that's what cowboys do

Outro:
D MajorD G+G           D MajorD G+G
That's what cowboys do
D MajorD            G+G
Broken bones and broken hearts
