Intro: F G C (2x) 

           G                     F               C 
You could say I’ve reached that time I know my trade 
            G                   F                C    
And that I know how to care for my guitar and I know how to get up late  
   Am                Em               
Comfortable when I sleep on the floor 
                F                     C 
I’ve played a fair few shows and I’m gonna play more  
         G                           F                  C               
And all along the while I was just trying to make people smile  

       C   G    F 
I play cowboy chords 
       C    G        F 
These air conditioned words 
      C              G           F              G        
About longing for the prairie and living in the suburbs  
        C  G   F 
I sing simple songs  
       C      G  F 
About rights and wrongs 
      C              G          F              G          
About finding that trail that leads away from everyone 


F G C   

      G              F              C 
And darling I know I do not give you much 
        G              F                C 
I get hungry for a wondering and then I don’t come back for months 
       Am               Em 
And I keep your picture by my side 
      F                 C 
It’s in my wallet, it’s on my mind  
             G                 F 
Every song I know, contains a whisper of your soul  

       C   G    F 
I play cowboy chords 
       C    G        F 
These air conditioned words 
      C              G           F              G        
About longing for the prairie and living in the suburbs  
        C  G   F 
I sing simple songs  
       C      G  F 
About rights and wrongs 
      C              G          F             G          
About finding that trail that leads away from everyone 


F G C 

           F         G             C 
And so my days slip away all the same 
         F               G             C 
Rolling wheels, hotels rooms and going grey 
         F                 G          C 
Casting glances over my shoulder as I go  
          F               G               C 
Tying knots and dwell on things I do not know  
  
            G                 F                  C 
I know my trade out on these boards with cowboy chords
