Never Was A Cowboy chords by Country Sirens

• Difficulty: Beginner 👶

Verse:
Bm
He was born with spurs on his boots,
D
Chasin' dust and wild pursuits,
A
Had a smile like a sunburned day,
Bm
And a heart that wouldn't stay.

Bm
She loved him hard, she loved him true,
D
But some men don't know what they do,
A
Till they find that empty bed,
Bm
And remember what she said-

Chorus:
Bm
There never was a horse that couldn't be rode,
D
Never was a cowboy who couldn't be throwed.
A
You might think you're tough, you might think you're stone,
Bm
But every cowboy gets thrown.
Bm
You can break your back, or break her trust,
D
And either way, you'll hit the dust.
A
Yeah, every cowboy learns alone-
Bm
There never was a cowboy who couldn't be throwed.

Verse:
Bm
She took off that ring one night,
D
Left it in the pale porch light,
A
Said "I ain't no wild mustang,
Bm
For you to ride and break again."

Bm
Now he's just a lonesome tune,
D
Playin' under a barroom moon,
A
He's hummin' that old line slow,
Bm
'Cause now he knows-

Chorus:
Bm
There never was a horse that couldn't be rode,
D
Never was a cowboy who couldn't be throwed.
A
You might think you're steel, you might think you're stone,
Bm
But every cowboy gets thrown.
Bm
When love bucks hard, you'll lose control,
D
You can't hold on to a broken soul.
A
Yeah, every cowboy learns alone-
Bm
There never was a cowboy who couldn't be throwed.

Bridge:
G
Now he's sittin' where the jukebox plays,
Bm
Thinkin' 'bout those better days,
G
He'd trade every rodeo crown,
A                                 F#m
For one more chance to turn her 'round.

Chorus:
Bm
There never was a horse that couldn't be rode,
D
Never was a cowboy who couldn't be throwed.
A
You can chase the wind, you can ride the storm,
Bm
But hearts don't mend when they've been torn.
Bm
So if you love her, boy, you'd best hold close,
D
'Cause even the proudest cowboy knows-
A
There never was a horse that couldn't be rode;
Bm
Never was a cowboy who couldn't be throwed.
