Em 
Well I can hear the wind whisper my name 
G 
Telling me it's time to head out again 
   D 
My horses are trailered and the lights are shut down 
        C 
And I'm long overdue from heading outta town 
      Em 
Got a fever that they call rodeo 
G 
Just enough winnings to make the next show 
    D 
Sometimes you make eight sometimes you hit dirt 
          C                         D 
Go on and pin another number to the back of my shirt 


[Refrão]
         G         D    C 
And I'll ride that pony fast 
       G      D        C  
like a cowboy from the past 
   G         D       C 
Beyond their wildest dreams 
     G        D C 
Like Texas in 1880 
          G        D G     
Just like Texas in 1880 
 
                                             
Ah, from Phoenix to Tulsa to the Astrodome 
New York City down to San Antone 
These boys are riding for legendary fame 
And our money's all gone but we ride just the same 
Our hearts will get broken and our heads'll get busted 
We’ll always believe the things that we trusted 
There'll be those nights when glory comes round 
And we'll tip our hats and wave to the crowd and then 
 
Chorus 
 
Bridge: 
    D                               
Someday when you're older someone'll see 
     Em  
That buckle hanging there on your belt 
C 
Ask you just how it felt... to ride 
 
 
Chorus
