(Main riff on "Cowboy Dan" verses:)
F#m
Well, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene

F#m
He goes to the reservation drinks and gets mean

F#m
He's gonna start a war He's gonna start a war

F#m
He hops in his pickup puts the pedal to the floor

F#m
And says "I got mine but I want more"

F#m
Because, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene

F#m
He goes to the reservation drinks and gets mean

F#m
He goes to the desert, fires his rifle in the sky

F#m
And says, "God if I have to die you will have to die"

F#m
Because, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene

F#m
I didn't move to the city, the city moved to me

F#m
And I want out desperately
(Transition:) F#m C#m Bm
F#m              C#m
Can't do it, not even if sober

Can't get that engine turned over

F#m              C#m
Can't do it, not even if sober

               Bm
Can't get that engine turned over

No, no, not even if sober

               Bm
Can't get that engine turned over
(Transition:) A E D
A               E
Standing in the tall grass

          D
Thinking nothing

A                E
You know we need oxygen to breathe

D
Oxygen to breathe

A               E
Standing in the tall grass

         D
Thinking nothing

A                E
You know we need oxygen to breathe

D
Oxygen to breathe

Every time you think you're walking you're just moving the ground
A E

Every time you think you're talking you're just moving your mouth
A E
D
Every time you think you're looking you're just looking down
