Intro: D G A D (x2) 

verse 1 
D                          G               A       D 
I'm out here chasin' these rainbows that I need to find, 
D                          G         A         D       G     A 
I go and Lord knows it kills me to leave her behind, 
G                                         
She drew a low card when she gave me her heart, 
    G                         D 
And sometimes it's hard to believe, 
     Bm                                  A 
That sweet little angel went and got herself tangled  
       G             A       D     D (1 upward strum) 
In the arms of a cowboy like me

       C                                     G                            D 
Well I know she deserves more than a drifter that lives for the lights, 
C                                   G                      D 
Smokey bars and guitars don't make for no fairy tale life, 
            Em                       D 
And every time I head home I think I'll find her gone, 
            G                               
But she's still there and still wants to be, 
       Bm            A       D    G     A 
In the arms of a cowboy like me 

verse 2  
D                              G                        A           D 
She's worn a hole in the carpet between the bed and the phone, 
    D                     G        A            D 
She worries about me when I leave ‘til I'm back home, 
                G                                      
Cause there's down time for killin' there's whiskey and there's women, 
       G                                D         
That's just right for feelin' a need, 
       Bm                                    A 
Oh but she's in no danger there's no room for a stranger, 
       G             A       D 
In the arms of a cowboy like me

  C                                   G                                    D 
I know she deserves more than a drifter that lives for the lights, 
C                                   G                     D 
Smokey bars and guitars don't make for no fairy tale life, 
      Em                               D 
Every time I head home I think I'll find her gone, 
            G                            
But she's still there and still wants to be, 
       Bm            A       G   D       G                
In the arms of a cowboy like me

             Em                             D 
Yeah every time I head home I think I'll find her gone, 
            G                             
But she's still there and still wants to be, 
       Bm        A           G 
In the arms of a cowboy like me, 
    Bm        A                 D    G 
The arms of a cowboy like me 
  A           D    G     A     D 
A Cowboy like me
