[Verse]
Bb D A rodeo's just a rodeo after riding several years F D F Bb From ol' Cheyenne to Houston they never cause too much fear D But let me tell you about one that will chill your very soul F D F Bb It happens in December when it's snowin' and it's cold D In Oklahoma City there's a building of concrete F D F Bb It's where the toughest stock and men will gather and compete D The points have all been tallied and the stock has all been brought F D F Bb We've got just two more hours cause it starts at eight o'clock
[Chorus]
D Bb It's the Finals the NFR the Series of the sport D Cm Hey rookie can you take ten head have you got the heart D Bb You think you're a tough cowboy we'll find out in the end F D Bb When that final whistle blows and the stock's all in the pen
[Verse]
Bb D The coliseum's quiet except for the sounds F D F Bb Of cowboys getting ready and the workmen of the grounds D The cowboys ask each other, what each other's got F D F Bb Did you draw ol' Necklace or pluck old Double-Ought D The tension now is mounting as the crowd starts pouring in F D F Bb A shiver goes all through me like from a cold cold wind D I hear the horses comin' runnin' down the alleyway F D F Bb They're snortin' and a blowin' as men shut the sliding gates
[Chorus]
D Bb It's the Finals the NFR the Series of the sport D Cm Hey rookie can you take ten head have you got the heart D Bb You think you're a tough cowboy we'll find out in the end F D Bb When that final whistle blows and the stock's all in the pen
[Verse]
Bb D We had too much time a while ago but not enough time now F D F Bb The Anthem is now over the grand entry's going out D I sit there on my bronc I'm ready and I wait F D F Bb I hear a chute gate open so I look out through the gate D A horse comes boiling out and blows up at the roof F D F Bb And then there comes another kicking like a curly wolf D I hear the chute boss holler through the yelling of the crowd F D F Bb He says there's one ahead of you so you'd better get screwed down
[Chorus]
D Bb It's the Finals the NFR the Series of the sport D Cm Hey rookie can you take ten head have you got the heart D Bb You think you're a tough cowboy we'll find out in the end F D Bb When that final whistle blows and the stock's all in the pen
[Verse]
Bb D I nod my head, I'm in a daze the horse goes boiling out F D F Bb I run my spurrs into his neck and then I drag 'em out D My mind is in a blur my eyes are seeing red F D F Bb The flank catch slams into my back, his rump bangs on my head D From somewhere in the background I can hear a buzzer sound F D F Bb My hand's jerked from the riggin and I crash into the ground D I stumble to my feet as I stagger to the wall F D F Bb I wonder to myself is it really worth it all
[Chorus] (x2)
D Bb It's the Finals the NFR the Series of the sport D Cm Hey rookie can you take ten head have you got the heart D Bb You think you're a tough cowboy we'll find out in the end F D Bb When that final whistle blows and the stock's all in the pen
