[Verse 1]
G A Em
His eyes are cold and restless
A Em
And his wounds have almost healed
A Em A
And she'd give half of Texas Just to change
the way he feels
Em
She knows his love's in Tulsa
A
And she knows he's gonna go
Em
But it ain't no woman flesh and blood
B
It's that damned old rodeo, oh
[Chorus]
Em
Well, it's bulls and blood
It's the dust and mud
A Em
It's the roar of a Sunday crowd
It's the white in his knuckles
The gold in his buckle
B D G
He'll win the next go 'round
Em
It's boots and chaps
It's cowboy hats
A Em
It's spurs and latigo
It's the ropes and the reins
And the joy and the pain
B Em
And they call the thing rodeo
[Pre-Verse]
G A Em G A Em
She does her best to hold him
[Verse 2]
A Em
When his love comes to call
A Em A
But his need for it controls him and her back's
against the wall
Em
And it's, "So long girl, I'll see you"
A
When it's time for him to go
Em
You know the woman wants her cowboy
B
Like he wants his rodeo
[Chorus]
Em
Well, it's bulls and blood
It's the dust and mud
A Em
It's the roar of a Sunday crowd
It's the white in his knuckles
The gold in his buckle
B D G
He'll win the next go 'round
Em
It's boots and chaps
It's cowboy hats
A Em
It's spurs and latigo
It's the ropes and the reins
And the joy and the pain
B Em
And they call the thing rodeo
[Pre-Verse]
G A Em G A Em
It'll drive a cowboy crazy
[Verse 3]
A Em
It'll drive the man insane
A Em
And he'll sell off everything he owns
A
Just to pay to play her game
Em
And a broken home and some broken bones
A
Is all he'll have to show
Em B
For all the years that he spent chasin' This dream
they call rodeo
[Chorus]
Em
Well, it's bulls and blood
It's the dust and mud
A Em
It's the roar of a Sunday crowd
It's the white in his knuckles
The gold in his buckle
B D G
He'll win the next go 'round
Em
It's boots and chaps
It's cowboy hats
A Em
It's spurs and latigo
It's the ropes and the reins
And the joy and the pain
B Em
And they call the thing rodeo
It's the broncs and the blood
It's the steers and the mud
[Outro]
B Em G A Em G A Em G A Em G A Em G A Em G A Em
And they call the thing rodeo
