🎸 Verse 1:
            Em
I heard you died out in Cheyenne
        C
With my mother's ring on your hand
  G                                D
A note in your pocket said "I'll love you till I die"
        Em                            C
I can hear the bulls are coming to claim that they've been hunting
    G                             D
The son of the cowboy came to claim his daddy's right
       Em                                C
And my baby she's been crying at the thought of me dying
    G                            D
She knows theres no stopping a man and his foolish pride
              C
So open the gates

🎸 Chorus:
I'm here to prove
G                   D
 I'm better than my father was
                        Em
And where he came from, too
              C
So open the gates
I'm here to ride
G              D
 To hell I'll go
                 Em
With daddy by my side


🎸 Break:
Em C G D        Em
        And I ain't never feared nothing


🎸 Verse 2:
           C
That was fourlegged and bucking
G
Throw me on a hurricane
         D
And I'll ride it to the coast
                Em
You'll never know that your son
         C
Came to do what you should've done
     G
On a summer day a long time ago
    D
Top a bull named To Hell I Go
              C
So open the gates


🎸 Chorus:
I'm here to prove
G                   D
 I'm better than my father was
                        Em
And where he came from, too
              C
So open the gates
I'm here to ride
G              D
 To hell I'll go
                 Em
With daddy by my side


🎸 Break:
Em C G D        Em
        Well
I died out in Cheyenne


🎸 Verse 3:
        C
With my baby there crying
      G                                D
And a belly that's been growing by the day
      Em
And I know that my son
             C
Will do what his father should've done
  G
A long, long time ago
     D
On a bull named To Hell I Go
              C
So open the gates


🎸 Chorus:
He's here to prove
G                   D
 He's better than his father was
                        Em
And where he came from, too
              C
So open the gates
He's here to ride
G              D
 To hell he'll go
                 Em
With daddy by his side
