    E
His eyes are cold and restless

        A                  E
And his wounds have almost healed

    A                  E             A                  E
And she'd give half of Texas just to change the way he feels

         E                                E7        B7
Well, it ain't no woman, flesh and blood, it's that damned old rodeo

           E                                                A                   E
Well, it's bulls and blood, it's the dust and mud, it's the roar of the Sunday crowd

         E                                                   B7               D           
It's the white in his knuckles, the gold in the buckle he'll win the next go 'round

B7   E                                       A         E
It's boots and chaps, it's cowboy hats, it's spurs and latigo

         E                                                        B7               E
It's the ropes and the reins, and the joy and the pain, and they call the thing rodeo.

    E
She does her best to hold him

     A                 E
When his love comes to call

        A           E                    A                  E
But his need for it controls him and her back's against the wall

         E
And it's "So long, girl, I'll see you."

          A7
When it's time for him to go.

             E                              E7           B7
You know the woman wants her cowboy like he wants his rodeo

           E                                                A                   E
Well, it's bulls and blood, it's the dust and mud, it's the roar of the Sunday crowd

         E                                                   B7               D
It's the white in his knuckles, the gold in the buckle he'll win the next go 'round

B7   E                                       A         E
It's boots and chaps, it's cowboy hats, it's spurs and latigo

         E                                                        B7               E

      E
It'll drive a cowboy crazy

      A             E
It'll drive the man insane

          A             E                     A               E
And he'll sell off everything he owns just to pay to play the game

      E
And a broken home and some broken bones

   A7
Is all he'll have to show

            E                                E7                 B7
For all the years that he spent chasin' this dream they call rodeo

           E                                                A                   E
Well, it's bulls and blood, it's the dust and mud, it's the roar of the Sunday crowd

         E                                                   B7               D
It's the white in his knuckles, the gold in the buckle he'll win the next go 'round

B7   E                                       A         E
It's boots and chaps, it's cowboy hats, it's spurs and latigo

         E                                                        B7               E
It's the ropes and the reins, and the joy and the pain, and they call the thing rodeo.

         E                                                            B7               E
It's the broncs and the blood, it's the steers and the mud, and they call the thing rodeo.
