Old Nashville Cowboys(Chords)

	        A                        E             A 
The old Nashville cowboy was burdened with time 
       A                         F#m            A  
He was bent by his years and the fight with the wine 
       A                         D           A 
With a head full of music and an old nursery rhyme 
  A                         E           A 
A heart full of sadness and dark sunken nights 
   A                          E            A 
He told me they've cheated he told me they stole 
    A                               F#m            A 
The strength from his youth and the songs from his soul 
   A                          D          A 
He said he raised family till he got too old 
    A 
And he called them miners mother Lord finders 
A                  E              A 
Digging so deep in search of more gold 
 
 
   E                             A  
Oh where are the cowboys and the home on the range 
     E                        A 
Does anyone know that they've killed Jesse James 
        D                    A            D       D/C#  Bm 
Now the good guys on TV seem bad ain't it strange 
        A                            E          A 
And the old Nashville cowboys missed out on the change 
 
 
 
The old cowboy's life now is gone with the past 
Like whiskey he drank it all went out too fast 
He didn't know how to make each swallow last 
And a head waitress won't be back to fill up his glass 
 
Chorus 2: 
Oh where are the cowboys and the home on the range 
Does anyone know that they've killed Jesse James 
Is anyone listening or is everyone blind 
And old Nashville cowboys will sing for a dime 
 
    A                           E          A  
And hard times are cheap at the end of the line
