🎸 Intro:

| B minorBm | A augmentedA | B minorBm | A augmentedA |


🎸 Verse 1:
D MajorD
Kim and I stole a stallion from a rodeo in Texas
                  B minorBm
Took him north and sold him right away
  G+G               B minorBm
We took the money and we ran but right behind us came a man
   G+G        A augmentedA         B minorBm A augmentedA
In a Stetson hat who vowed he'd make us pay

🎸 Verse 2:
  D MajorD
The buyer gave a good description of the girls who sold that stud
                     B minorBm
And the man in the Stetson knew us right away
      G+G
Said there ain't two outlaws in this world
B minorBm
Fits the looks of those two girls
 G+G         A augmentedA      B minorBm
I know 'em but they always get away

🎸 Chorus:
    G+G       A augmentedA         D MajorD
And it wasn't long before we heard the news
   G+G        A augmentedA       D MajorD        G+G
It's enough to give an old cowgirl a bad case of the blues
     B minorBm      A augmentedA                    D MajorD
But that Texas ranger met his match with the girls from Santa Cruz

🎸 Solo:
| B minorBm | A augmentedA | B minorBm | A augmentedA |

🎸 Verse 3:
D MajorD
Kim and I were used to trouble so we lit out on the double
               B minorBm
Headin' for a border town we knew
    G+G
But the ranger caught us on the way
B minorBm
Stopped us dead what could I say
   G+G        A augmentedA       B minorBm   A augmentedA
And I figured that the two of us were through

🎸 Verse 4:
  D MajorD
But there was one thing I neglected
D MajorD
Love is often unexpected
                   B minorBm
Guess that's just the way it's gonna be
     G+G
Cause the ranger took one look at Kim
  B minorBm
And she took one look back at him
  G+G       A augmentedA        B minorBm
And neither one of them remembered me

🎸 Chorus:
    G+G       A augmentedA        D MajorD
And it wasn't long before I heard the news
   G+G        A augmentedA       D MajorD        G+G
It's enough to give an old cowgirl a bad case of the blues
     B minorBm      A augmentedA                    D MajorD
But that Texas ranger made his match with my friend from Santa Cruz
     B minorBm      A augmentedA      G+G        A augmentedA      D MajorD
Yeah, the Texas ranger got old Kim and he got that stallion too
