F  C  G


Verse 1:
       F           C              Am          G
He was rugged as a prairie in the middle of July
       F            C             Am                 G
Ridin’ tall and solitary, blowin’ smoke rings at the sky
       F                C               Am           G
He was rough around the edges, like the outer county lines
          F                 C                  G
If he was here right now, I swear I’d make him mine

Chorus:
F                 C      Am        G
Whatever happened to the Marlboro Man
       F                C          Am             G
Did he finally tame the west, ride off in that sunset
       F             C             Am            G
Was he lookin’ for a wild flame to light him up again
       F                 C     Am        G         F  C  Am  G
‘Cause right now I could use a Marlboro, Marlboro Man


Verse 2:
        F                C           Am          G
I don’t smoke much but I would if he handed me a light
             F            C           Am           G
I don’t ride horses but I could if he offered me a ride
        F               C                   Am             G
I would worry ‘bout him all day and let him keep me up all night
        F                C               G
Bet you I could make him show his softer side


Chorus:
F                 C      Am        G
Whatever happened to the Marlboro Man
       F                C          Am             G
Did he finally tame the west, ride off in that sunset
       F             C             Am            G
Was he lookin’ for a wild flame to light him up again
       F                 C     Am        G         F
‘Cause right now I could use a Marlboro, Marlboro Man


[Instrumental Break]
C  Am  G  F  C  G


Bridge:
      Em                 Am            Em            Am
Maybe it’s just sweet nostalgia from a western movie scene
      Dm               C             G
But I like to think he ain’t a dying breed


Chorus:
F            C        Am        G
Man I wish I knew the Marlboro Man
F               C        Am            G
Someone strong enough to love me how I am
F              C             Am            G
I could be his wild flame to light him up again
F                 C     Am        G         F
Right now I could use a Marlboro, Marlboro Man
