RHINESTONE COWBOY

 

 

A                                                  D   A

I’ve been walking these streets so long

A                            D    A

Singing the same old song

A                                                                         E

I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway

               D

Where hustle the name of the game

D                                                                                      A

And nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain

 

A                         E

There’s been a load of compromising

               D                A

On the road to my horizon

          D                                                                       E

But I’m going to be where the lights are shining on me

                              A          D    A

Like a rhinestone cowboy

A                                       A maj7                     Bm E

Riding out on a horse in a star spangled rodeo

                                 A         D A

Like a rhinestone cowboy

A              A maj7                                                      Bm   E

Getting cards and letters from people I don’t even know

                                         D   A

Offers coming over the phone

 

A                                        D   A

Well I really don’t mind the rain

A                                  D    A

And a smile can hide the pain

A                                                                   D   A                               E

But when you’re down when you’re riding a train that’s taking the long way

           D

But I dream of the things I’d do

                                                                                     A

With a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe

 

A                          E    
There’s been a load of compromising

              D                  A

On the road to my horizon

          D                                                                        E

But I’m going to be where the lights are shining on me

 

 

                                A

Like a rhinestone cowboy

A                                       A maj7                       Bm  E

Riding out on a horse in a star spangled rodeo

                                A          D   A

Like a rhinestone cowboy

              A mj7                                                             Bm   E

Getting cards and letters from people I don’t even know

                                           D        A

Offers coming over the phone
