F C F C




🎸 Verse 1:
F            C
Done playin' these city boy games
F            C
Done chasin' those red-eye planes
F           C                 G
And killin' myself to reheat a flame
F              C
Done wonderin' who's on his line
F              C
And what he's doin' with all his time
F               C                   G
And if I'm good enough for him to be mine

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
           F
I just need a love that's simple
 N.C.
He could wear a Stetson or Resistol

           Am
'Cause I'm needin', needin', needin'
         F                C
Somethin' good down to the core
          Am
Who keeps it easy, easy, easy
    F                G
To love like Sunday morn'
    Am
The strong and silent type
     F                  C
Who makes me his first choicе
               Am
That's why I'm holdin', holdin', holdin'
F           C
Out for a cowboy


🎸 Verse 2:
 F               C
Blue jeans and ridin' his horse
 F               C
Rough hands and a rеal strong boy
  F              C                 G
Throw in a good woman and he don't need much more
F         C
God
I know he exists
  F           C
So I'll keep on waitin' on him
   F          C         G
My salt of the earth, gentleman


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
F
I need somethin' to last forever
N.C.
Like boots and good leather

To love like Sunday morn'
    Am
The strong and silent type
       F             C
Who makes me his first choice

Someone good down to the core
