        G
INTRO : 
 G    C      D                G           C            D
Ride cowboy ride through the backdoor of heaven to the other side 
         G        C             D
I wanna know the danger of the kiss at midnight 
 G    C      D           G
Ride cowboy ride yeah I learned my lessons 
          Em                 C                            D
Here's a story to tell so I make my confessions in this sleazy motel 
        G                     Em
I could be a romantic I could try my best lines 
       C                          D
But I ain't got the money and we ain't got the time 
 G    C      D                G           C            D
Ride cowboy ride through the backdoor of heaven to the other side 
         G        C             D
I wanna know the danger of the kiss at midnight 
 G    C      D          G   Em                   C
Ride cowboy ride woh oh oh     so you wanna be a cowboy
 D         G    Em   C   D   G   Em    C         D
Ride ride ride                         ride ride ride
