She met him on the front porch before he could come in, before he could come and love on her and leave again
C majorC         FF       C majorC    FF        C majorC        FF   G+G  C majorC
She was sad but resolute convicted in her truth, sure as the sun sets to rise a cowboys gonna ride
C majorC             FF         C majorC      FF       C majorC         G+G
It didn't last a minute, he never tried to kiss her, never tried to touch her face or bend her ear
      C majorC             FF          C majorC        FF     C majorC     FF G+G   C majorC
He just climbed in his truck, she felt it when he looked up, but it was gone as fast as he said adios my dear

That's how it goes down in a rodeo town, a young man's way to try and tame the wildness he's drawn

He don't know now but he'll sure as hell find out, all that he was holdin' on will someday all be gone

🎸 Verse 2:
C majorC           FF           C majorC     FF        C majorC         G+G
A augmentedA man's got no choice, he's got that little voice that nags him on and tells him still to try

You can deal with it, hell and you might even kill it, but it's awfully persistent and mighty slow to die
C majorC                    FF       C majorC    FF     C majorC      G+G
Cause when your life's in a bag and the tools of your trade are leather, rawhide, and handmade
C majorC               FF         C majorC       FF       C majorC    FF   G+G    C majorC
You don't give much thought to all the hell you wrought to the one up in the stands cheering out your name


🎸 Chorus:
       A minorAm  G+G     FF  C majorC                       G+G
That's how it goes down in a rodeo town, a young man's way to try and tame the wildness he's drawn

He don't know now but he'll sure as hell find out, all that he was holdin on will someday all be gone

C majorC             FF       C majorC   FF      C majorC          G+G
She loaded up her stuff, fueled up her truck, turned in her key and checked the map
 C majorC                   FF       C majorC
To herself she wouldn't lie, it wasn't all a waste of time
FF       C majorC        FF    G+G    C majorC
It was beautiful and wild and it was both at the same time

        A minorAm  G+G     FF   C majorC                  G+G
That's how it goes down in a rodeo town
Don't ask me how I know, but I do
      A minorAm G+G  FF        C majorC                    FF   G+G    C majorC
I didn't know then all that I know now, but all that I was living for will someday all be through
