1]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch]\r\nWell I was sitting in a coffee shop[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\njust having a cup to pass the time[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nswapping rodeo stories with this old cowboy friend of mine.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch]\r\nWhen some motorcycle riders started snickering in the back[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nstarted poking fun at my friend's hat.[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 2]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nOne old boy said \"hey Tex, where'd you park your horse\"[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nMy friend just pulled his hat down low, but they couldn't be ignored.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch]\r\nOne husky fella said \"I think I'll rip that hat right off your head\".[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nThat's when my friend turned around, and this is what he said...[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Chorus]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch]\r\nYou'll ride a black tornado across a western sky.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch]\r\nRope an old blue northern and milk it 'till it's dry.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch]\r\nBulldog the Mississippi, pin its ears down flat[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nLong before you take this cowboy's hat.[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 3]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nNow partner, this old hat's better left alone.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nYou see, it used to be my daddy's, but last year he passed on.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch]\r\nMy nephew skinned the rattler that makes up this old hat band.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nBut back in '69, he died in Vietnam.[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 4]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nNow the eagle feather was given to me by an Indian friend of mine.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nSomeone ran him down somewhere around that Arizona line.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch]\r\nAnd a real special lady give me this hat pin,[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nAnd I don't know if I'll ever see her again.[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Chorus]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch]\r\nYou'll ride a black tornado across a western sky.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch]\r\nRope an old blue norther and milk it 'till it's dry.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch]\r\nBulldog the Mississippi, pin its ears down flat[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nLong before you take this cowboy's hat.[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 5]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nNow if your leather jacket means to you what this hat means to me,[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nthen I guess we understand each other, and we'll just let it be.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch]\r\nBut if you still think it's funny, Man, you got my back up against the wall,[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nAnd if you touch my hat, you're gonna have to fight us all.[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 6]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nWell right then I caught a little sadness in that gang leader's eyes.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nHe turned back to the others and they all just kind of shuffled on outside.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch]\r\nBut when my friend turned back towards me I noticed his old hat brim[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nWell it was turned up in a big old Texas grin![/tab]\r\n\r\n[Chorus]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch]\r\nYou'll ride a black tornado across a western sky.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch]\r\nRope an old blue norther and milk it 'till it's dry.[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch]\r\nBulldog the Mississippi, pin its ears down flat[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch]\r\nLong before you take this cowboy's hat.[/tab]","plain_text":"[Verse 1]\n\n\n\n\n\n\n[Verse
