[Intro]
C Bm Em A G D G D
[Verse 1]
C G C A G D G D
Well first you got to want to get off bad enough to wanna get on him in the first place
C G
And you better trust in your lady luck
A G D
Pray to God that she don't give up on you right now
[Chorus]
C Bm Em A Em G D G Em
Live fast, die young bull rider
[Verse 2]
C A G Em G Em
One hand hold is all you got it's you and the bull against the clock and a cross crowd
C A D G Em
And once upon a spinning to nothing else you've ever done can pull this way
G
You're just outside the bucking shoot
C G D G Em
Lose a spur, you lose your seat and you lose yourself
C
By now he's bucking mean and dirty
G A G D G Em
Slinging mud and cowboy boots and kicking clowns
[Chorus]
C Bm Em A Em G D G Em
No fools, no fun, bull rider
[Verse 3]
D
You've got to feel the way he's moving, you've got to watch his head
C
And brace yourself for anything that a friend of you might dread
D A D
You know the art of hanging loose, hanging just as tight
C D
Well there's something like a hurricane who's dancing with the kite
[Bridge]
C Bm Em A Em G Em G Em
[Verse 4]
C G
Well, the rodeo is more than rough
Em G D
It's a fact of life it's tough to cut his fever ass
C G
It's drinking beer and pulling trailers
C D G D G Em
Tighten may on barreled razors and horse's buck
[Chorus]
C Bm Em A Em G Em
No rides, no pay, bull rider
C Bm Em A Em G D C Bm
Live fast, die young bull rider
Em A Em G C Bm C Em A Em G C
