Brandi Carlile - Cowgirls
Based off of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwYwBo_rD0w
Standard Tuning, Capo 3rd Fret
[Verse 1]
      G
To be fair I should've told you
C                         D
Running from the money is what I do
        G
I don't believe in wealth and excess
               C                  Dadd4
And I have had debt the size of Texas
       G
But I, I didn't follow my dreams
                              C
To dump my money in your slot machine
            C/B                  Am7
And you can take that to the bank
                      D7
Tell the bank man the devil said thanks
G                        G/F#
You know you can't get a drink in this town
Em             C
Without Sunday morning comin' down
G           G/F#         C
And cashing in on the costume
      Dadd4
Yeah, get 'em while they last
    C                       Dadd4
The NRA can kiss my country ass
[Chorus]
G                             G/F#            Em
Just because you got a little dust under your boots
                 C
Doesn't mean you walked a country mile
G         G/F#
You never hopped a train
         C              Dadd4
And your back roads are going outta style
G             G/F#            Em
Listen to the radio and sing along
           C
You're not saying anything
G                     G/F#
Well you never laid a railroad tie
   C                  C/B
Or watched a lonesome cowboy die
   Am7                              D7
Or listened to the bells of freedom ring
    Am7                                  D7
And now that you're just spittin' in the wind
     C               Dadd4             G
It's time for you to let them cowgirls in
[Verse 2]
             G
You got your ten gallon hat
           C                         D
Yeah, your chewing cigars and you're smoking the fat
   G
Tattoos of naked ladies
                    C                  Dadd4
You played the same video games in the 80's
G           G/F#
I hope your vintage guitar
Em                      C
Will take you where the wild things are
G          G/F#                 C
I hope you find your true voice there
        Dadd4
And the ghost of who you are
G                    G/F#           Em
And if they're gonna call you an outlaw
     C
Live fast and die young
G                  G/F#           C          Dadd4
Those songs have already been sung by better men
[Chorus]
G                             G/F#            Em
Just because you got a little dust under your boots
                 C
Doesn't mean you walked a country mile
G         G/F#
You never hopped a train
         C              Dadd4
And your back roads are going outta style
G             G/F#            Em
Listen to the radio and sing along
           C
You're not saying anything
G                     G/F#
Well you never laid a railroad tie
   C                  C/B
Or watched a lonesome cowboy die
   Am7                              D7
Or listened to the bells of freedom ring
    Am7                                  D7
And now that you're just spittin' in the wind
     C               Dadd4             G    G/F#
It's time for you to let them cowgirls in
[Outro]
Am7                                 D7
Now that you're just pissin' in the wind
     C               D                 G
It's time for you to let them cowgirls in
