[Verse 1]
                 D
If highways were dirt roads
      G           D
Streetlights were stars
    G         D
Mustangs were horses
A                    D
 I'd walk outta this bar
       G          D
A cigarette and a Stetson
            G     D
And whiskey in my veins
          G           D
I'd climb back in the saddle
A                       D
 And grab a hold of the reins


[Chorus]
           G
If I was a cowboy
                       D
I wouldn't miss you at all
                   G
A shot of Jack and Marlboro, I'd move on, girl
A
Feelin' ten feet tall
         Bm
I'd ride off into the sunset
A                        G                  D
Out west, never let your memory ever tie me down
           D
If I was a cowboy
       A           D
I'd be over you by now


[Verse 2]
                    D
You'd be ashes in a campfire
      G       D
Water under a bridge
           G      D
A trail of dust behind me
            A        D
You'd never find me again


[Chorus]
           G
If I was a cowboy
                       D
I wouldn't miss you at all
                   G
A shot of Jack and Marlboro, I'd move on, girl
A
Feelin' ten feet tall
         Bm
I'd ride off into the sunset
A                        G                  D
Out west, never let your memory ever tie me down
           D
If I was a cowboy
       A           D
I'd be over you by now


[Bridge]
       Bm               A
Let my boots down, in a new town
       G
Find a nail to hang my hat
                 Em
And you wouldn't kill me, and I wouldn't still be
A
Wishin' you'd come back


[Chorus]
           G      D
If I was a cowboy
           G              A
If I was a cowboy (Whoa!)
         Bm
I'd ride off into the sunset
A                        G                  D
Out west, never let your memory ever tie me down
           D
If I was a cowboy
       A           Bm
I'd be over you by now
           D
If I was a cowboy
       A
I'd be over you by now
