Verse 1: Riley Green:
  C
I used to think that he
                             F
Was the toughest SOB next to John Wayne
      C
On his caterpillar seat
                              F
Steady turnin' dirt damn near all day

Pre-Chorus: Riley Green:
               Am                G
His hands were all calloused up, leather-saddle tough
          F                  C            Dm
You could knock him down and he gets back up


Chorus: Riley Green:
                  F
And he ain't from Texas
                      C
And he don't rope and ride
                   F
But he's wide-open reckless
                  C
Never runs from a fight
                    Am         G
They don't give out buckles or ribbons
        F            C      Dm
For the kinda outlaw livin' that he did
                      F
My old man ain't from Texas
             G                               C    F   C   F G F
But I'd say he is just about as cowboy as it gets


Verse 2: Randy Houser:
          C
He didn't wear a Stetson hat
                              F
Just an old snapback from the co-op
           C
Hell, he's never been on a bull
                                            F
But there's been a bunch of times he's been throwed of


Pre-Chorus: Randy Houser:
    Am                      G
His horse was a Ford with a dent in the door
       F          C          Dm
He's a Redman tailgate troubadour


Chorus: Randy Houser:
                  F
No, he ain't from Texas
                      C
And he don't rope and ride
                   F
But he's wide-open reckless
                  C
Never runs from a fight
                    Am         G
They don't give out buckles or ribbons
        F            C      Dm
For the kinda outlaw livin' that he did
                      F
My old man ain't from Texas
             G                             C
But I'd say he is just about as cowboy as it gets

Bridge: Riley Green:
             Am          G
No, he ain't Eastwood or Wyatt Earp
   F           C    Dm       G
Or Quickley or Billy the Kid


Chorus: Riley Green & Randy Houser:
                  F
And he ain't from Texas
                      C
And he don't rope and ride
                   F
But he's wide-open reckless
                  C
Never runs from a fight
                    Am         G
They don't give out buckles or ribbons
        F            C      Dm
For the kinda outlaw livin' that he did
                      F
My old man ain't from Texas
               G
But I'd say he is, yeah
                           C    F
Just about as cowboy as it gets


Post-Chorus: Riley Green & Randy Houser:
              C           F
As cowboy as it gets (Cowboy)
