Intro: G G Verse : G He got down out of the cattle truck F G In the Amarillo night G He looked up at the Texas sky Gm And thought of his last ride F G He'd trade all his tomorrows C G For eight seconds one more time
G He could'a made World Champion Cowboy C G G Back in nineteen sixty nine Verse : G He thanked the driver for the ride F G And he closed the semi door G And limped across the parking lot Gm To another liquor store F G He held onto the bottle Cm G As he counted out his change G And he felt like some old saddle bronc C G Who'd been turned out on the range Chorus: F When the rodeo is over G F Where does the cowboy go? Cm Never thought it'd be his last ride C Till the last time he got throw'd F When your heart can't take the losin' G F And your knees can't take the blows G When the rodeo is over, C F Where does the cowboy go? G F G F Where does the cowboy go? Break: Gm Whiskey on his breath Gm And the age in his eyes F G He'll hitch a ride on the interstate Cm G C C And fade into the sunrise Verse : G Now, Sedona, she's a vortex F G But she's sweeter than the coast G He smokes cigarettes he can't afford Gm And whistles to a ghost F His boots belong to memory G F And his spurs belong to rust G He'll be picking up his turquoise C G And leave the buckles in the dust Chorus: F When the rodeo is over G F Where does the cowboy go? Cm He never thought it'd be his last ride C Till the last time he got throw'd F When your heart can't take the losin' G F And your knees can't take the blows G When the rodeo is over C Gm Where Do the cowboys go? Outro: G When the rodeo is over C G Where does the cowboy go?
