[Verse 1]
D                          D7
From the hills of Kaycee, Wyoming

       G                D
Where life's wooly and wild

D
Came an Air Force brat

       D7
In a cowboy hat

           E7         A
And that Copenhagen smile

          D
And from bucking broncs

     D7
To honky tonks

    G                      Em
He always sang a cowboy's song

          D
We were much too young

        B7
Having too much fun

    E7     A     D
As we all sang along

  D            G        D
(And we sang) Life's a highway

              G
There's only one way

                  D
You're gonna get through it

           G
When she starts to twist

     D         E
Be more like Chris

         E7     
Pull your hat down tight

     A7
And just LeDoux it

            D
When that whistle blows

           D7
And that crowd explodes

          G                      Em
And them pickup men are at your side

                D         A7          D
They tell you good ride cowboy, good ride

[Verse 2]
           E               E7
From gold buckles to gold records

            A                     E
Well once again he was spinning 'round

E
Took the whole world on

E                E7
And he turned us on

         F#7            B
To that Western Underground

           E
And from "Bareback Jack"

          E7
To "This Cowboy's Hat"

     A                           F#m
The songs were stronger than his pain

          E
He would not slow down

              C#7
From town to town

      F#7               B          E
Like children running through the rain
[Chorus]
               A         E
(And we sang) Life's a highway

              A
There's only one way

                   E
You're gonna get through it

          A
When she starts to twist

    E         F#
Be more like Chris

          F#7
Pull your hat down tight

     B7
And just LeDoux it

         E
When that whistle blows

          E7
And that crowd explodes

          A                     F#m
And them pickup men are at your side

               E         B7           E
They tell you good ride cowboy, good ride

E                            E7
I bet he crossed that river Jordan

          A                 F#m
With St. Peter on the other side

          E         B7          E     A
Singing good ride cowboy, good ride

E          B7           E
Good ride cowboy, good ride
