C F C F
[Verse 1]
CI've lived in lonely cities
I've crossed Fdeserts on camel back
And I've Cmfilled the halls of folklore with things FI'd... rather we forget
I could Gsweep you Amoff the Fstreet so Gsaying this is Amgoddamn Ftough
But Gthis town Ammight be Fbig enough...
[Verse 2]
See, I Cmreckon what you're saying
But this Amdog's run every course
I've Cmroamed without my boots on
I've Fraced without my horse
And Gthen I Amate my Fhorse's meat straight Gfrom my Amhorse's Fbones
'Cause this Gdog
N.C.
Must roam alone
[Interlude]
 C   G   Am   Gx2
[Verse 3]
  CYou could shoot me in the mountains
  FIn the cold fat rain
  CmWe could do it in the countryside, as we
  Fwalk the plain
It wouldn't Ggive us Amany Fclosure
All Gcowboys Amneed to Ftrust
That Gthis town Ammight be Fbig enough
N.C.
For both of us

We could Gtrade in Call our Fsilver bullets
And Gbuy a Cpatch oFf dust
This Gtown might Cjust be Fbig enough
