 F                        Asus4          Bb 
Tell you a story, about a girl named Kimberly 
 F                               Asus4             Bb 
Who all the cowboys wanted cause she was wild and free 
 F                                         Asus4         Bb 
But now theres fussing and theres fighting We all taking sides 
 F                                               Asus4          Bb 
While the cowboys are playing their old games of conquer and divide. You see 



F                        Asus4        Bb 
Kimberly was special, a rare and wild soul 
       F                             Asus4            Bb 
Nearly every man who met her, their hearts she always stole 
              F                              Asus4            Bb 
But there are always those exceptions of the cold and callous kind 
     F                        Asus4                  Bb 
That wanted just her body and leave the mess for us behind 



        F                          Asus4       Bb 
Now the prince of the cowboys, his name was Barnett 
   F                                      Asus4        Bb 
He wanted to leave his mark, you know, so we did not forget 
            F               Asus4   Bb 
So he said 'Mine mine mine, all for me' 
     F                           Asus4             Bb 
It's great to be a cowboy in the wild west roaming free 


      F                                   Asus4            Bb 
So he brandished all his bullets he put a gun right to our head 
            F                                           Asus4           
 Bb 
He said 'I'm giving you all a choice now, you're either with me or your dead 
           F                            Asus4          Bb 
You know I got to have this kim, I cant get her off my mind 
    F                            Asus4 Bb 
And I aint gonna stop until shes mine, mine' 



G           Bb 
Where do i stand? 
         Asus4                  C 
Got this hole in my heart and a line drawn in the 
G              Bb 
sand. It's all gray. 
         Asus4                   C           G 
There are no black and whites so who am I to say 



F                  Asus4 
I am what I am and I am strong 
        Bb 
Cause I got my land and I got my song 
F                  Asus4 
I am what I am and I am belong 
        Bb 
Cause I got my land and I got my song

        F                          Asus4        Bb 
Now its come to a showdown and its all push and pull 
         F                                   Asus4               Bb 
Got these lawyers having field day while the cowboys are funding schools 
         F                               Asus4           Bb 
I guess it boils down to how you see it, do you see Kimberly, 
        F                                        Asus4          Bb 
Or just another god damn hole in the ground just another opportunity? 




G           Bb 
Where do i stand? 
         Asus4                  C 
Got this hole in my heart and a line drawn in the 
G              Bb 
sand. It's all gray. 
         Asus4                   C           G 
There are no black and whites so who am I to say 

        Bb 
You are wrong 
        Asus4               C             G 
but you never know what you got until its gone 
        Bb 
And one day 
      Asus4                         C               G 
the little people will ask what you did and what we said 



F                  Asus4 
I am what I am and I am strong 
        Bb 
Cause I got my land and I got my song 
F                  Asus4 
I am what I am and I am belong 
        Bb 
Cause I got my land and I got my song 
F                  Asus4 
I am what I am and I am strong 
        Bb 
Cause I got my land and I got my song 
F                  Asus4 
I am what I am and I am belong 
        Bb 
Cause I got my land and I got my song
