Michael Murphey - Cowboy Pride Chords

[Verse]
B           B7              E
Well, I'm writing you this letter
                        B
and it's a long time overdue
                                     F#7
You're thinkin' "Just mind your own business"
                            B
I wouldn't blame you if you do
             B7                E
You know our range is gettin' smaller
                          B
Hear you're all busted up inside
                                 F#7
But it ain't the Broncos that'll kill you
                                 B
It's just that damned old cowboy pride
       B7                E
Cowboy pride can always get a man through
                             B
but cowboy pride will make a fool of you
               F#7
Good women are hard to find
                      B
I'm talkin' about the faithful kind
               B7                E
I hear you're running with that waitress
                         B
and she's under age and wild
                                    F#7
You know your wife's the best there is, fella
                             B
Would you move in with that child?
           B7                  E
She stuck with you through the hard times
                            B
Think of all the nights she cried
                    F#7
Will she be another victim
                        B
of that same old cowboy pride

Guess it's time to close my letter
                                  C
It's just somethin' that I had to do
                           G7
You know I made the same mistake once
                             C
before she fell in love with you
           C7                F
So go home to your wife and family
                            C
It's time to put the past aside
                         G7
So you don't end up like me now
                        C
Nothin' left but cowboy pride
           C7              F
Cowboy pride can always get a man through
                             C
but cowboy pride will make a fool of you
               G7
Good women are hard to find
                       C
I'm talkin' about the faithful kind
                  G7
Don't end up like me now
                              C
with nothin' left but cowboy pride
