Kelsea Ballerini – Cowboys Cry Too (Guitar)

Em D/F# G C
Mm

Em      D/F#         G              C
He's as tough as the tattoos up his right arm

         Em         D/F#      G                     C
And I've talked him down from getting in a fight or two

   Em         D/F#            G                            C
He stands his ground, he's as stubborn as the weeds in the backyard

       Em      D/F#          G                 C
'Cause growing up, he had to go where the wind blew

   Em        D/F#      G                    C
He hides his heart and hurt, guess he kinda had to

      Em         D/F#   G                  C
And a world that says, "Saddle up and be a man"

         Em       D/F#         G          C
When the sun goes down and his hazel eyes go blue

            Em D/F# G     C
That's when I        understand

        G     C
Cowboys cry too

             Em7                        D/F#                   C
They may not let 'em fall down in their hometown thinkin' they still got shit to prove

               G  C
That well runs deep

              Em7                       D/F#               C
But when he's showin' his skin, lettin' mе in, that's when he's toughest to mе

        Am7  D           C Am7 G
I never knew cowboys cry too

       Em         D/F#          G              C
I grew up wishing I could close off the way my dad did

            Em        D/F#        G                     C
'Cause that man never felt a damn thing he didn't wanna feel

                Em       D/F#        G                C
But I've burned too many miles tryna ride out all the sadness

              Em       D/F#      G                       C
But you can't outdrive pain, someday it's gonna take the wheel

          Em              D/F#      G              C
Can't be alone, but don't wanna get close to anybody

                 Em               D/F#       G                     C
Don't wanna bare teeth, but don't wanna look weak, it's a tough spot

         Em           D/F#  G                  C
But I'm afraid you'll walk away when the tears start runnin'

    Em D/F# G     C
But I        hope not

               G     C
'Cause cowboys cry too

             Em7                        D/F#                   C
They may not let 'em fall down in their hometown thinkin' they still got shit to prove

               G  C
That well runs deep

              Em7                       D/F#               C
But when he's showin' his skin, lettin' mе in, that's when he's toughest to mе

        Am7  D           C Am7 G
I never knew cowboys cry too

C
Blame it on their fathers

                          G/B
The ones that said they'd stay

                   Am                                 C
Or blame it on the songs that tell you they all ride away

                 D
But mine ain't that way

D
I an't that way

        G     C
Cowboys cry too

             Em7                        D/F#                   C
They may not let 'em fall down in their hometown thinkin' they still got shit to prove

               N.C. C
That well runs deep

              Em7                       D/F#               C
But when he's showin' his skin, lettin' mе in, that's when he's toughest to mе
