Key: A Intro: A D A D A D A Verse 1: A I've been walkin' these streets so long A Singin' the same old song E I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway D Where hustle's the name of the game A And nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain E There's been a load of compromisin' D A On the road to my horizon D Bm E But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me
Chorus: D E A Like a rhinestone cowboy E Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo A Like a rhinestone cowboy E Getting cards and lеtters from people I don't еven know D E And offers comin' over the phone Verse 2: A Well, I really don't mind the rain A And a smile can hide all the pain E But you're down when you're ridin' the train that's takin' the long way D And I dream of the things I'll do A With a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe E There'll be a load of compromisin' D A On the road to my horizon D Bm E But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me Chorus: D E A Like a rhinestone cowboy E Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo A Like a rhinestone cowboy E Getting cards and lеtters from people I don't еven know D E And offers comin' over the phone Out-Chorus: A Like a rhinestone cowboy E Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo A Like a rhinestone cowboy E Gettin' card and letters from people I don't even know
