CmRide...I used to jump my horse and Gride
I had a six-gun at my Cmside
I was so handsome women Gcried
And I got shot but I never Cmdied
CmI could play if I'd do everything he'd Gsay
Girls seemed to just get in hiCms way
Those days we weren't considered Gfun
A cowboy's work is never doCmne
FmHe'd fight crime all the A#time, he'd always Cmwin
Till his mGom would break it up and call him Cmin
He was Fmtough, he was A#hard, but he was Cmkind
And he was loGved 'cause guys like him were hard to Cmfind
CmRide...I'd like to ride again sGomeday
I think I still know how to plCmay
I play games now but it's not Gfun
A cowboy's work is never doCmne

Ride...I used to jump my horse and ride

I had a six-gun at my side

I was so handsome women cried

And I got shot but I never died

Cm G

I could play if I'd do everything he'd say

Girls seemed to just get in his way

Those days we weren't considered fun

A cowboy's work is never done

Fm A# Cm

He'd fight crime all the time, he'd always win

G Cm

Till his mom would break it up and call him in

Fm A# Cm

He was tough, he was hard, but he was kind

G Cm

And he was loved 'cause guys like him were hard to find

Cm G

Ride...I'd like to ride again someday

I think I still know how to play

I play games now but it's not fun

A cowboy's work is never done
