Too Old To Play Cowboy Chords

(ver. 1)
Chris Ledoux
[Intro]
A  D  A  D
A  E  A
 
 
[Verse 1]
A     D                 E          A
Boots spurs and a pearl handle cap pistol
      D           A          E
and a gold mine I dug in the sand
  A              D           E             A
I rode the fence line in our backyard each day
     D                        E
on a stick horse I called old Dan
 
     A          D        E          A
Then one day my mama she called me aside
         D            A        E
and said you can't be fourteen again
        A          D            E           A
There's not enough gold in your lost canyon mine
   D             E       A
to keep you from being a man
 
 
[Chorus]
         D                      A
You're a little too old to play cowboy
          D                    E
well it's high time you made a change
   D                       A
So kick off your boots and bed down your horse
      E                          A
Cause there ain't no home on the range
 
 
[Interlude]
A  D  A  D
 
 
[Verse 2]
  A      D         E          A
A wife a son and a job at the factory
    D          A          E
but that never was really me
   A         D      E          A
So we loaded up our old pickup truck
   D                    E
to go where I wanted to be
 
  A     D               E          A
A rodeo clown picked me up off the ground
       D            A        E
at the Cheyenne Frontier rodeo
A            D        E            A
That was the start of breakin' her heart
         D             E               A
she said you'd think a grown man would know
 
 
[Chorus]
         D                      A
You're a little too old to play cowboy
          D                    E
well it's high time you made a change
   D                       A
So kick off your boots and bed down your horse
      E                          A
Cause there ain't no home on the range
 
 
[Interlude]
A  D  A#  D#
 
 
[Verse 3]
  A#        D#         F          A#
Bologna and beans were within our means
      D#        A#        F
and a hamburger once in a while
  A#          D#           F         A#
A new pair of jeans is the answer to dreams
     D#                F
when you live in rodeo style
 
A#         D#       F            A#
One day my boy said I don't want toys
       D#           A#      F
just a friend would satisfy me
    A#           D#       F           A#
And I knew right then I'd come to the end
         D#           F            A#
when the tears in his eyes said to me
 
 
[Chorus]
         D#                     A#
You're a little too old to play cowboy
          D#                   F
well it's high time you made a change
   D#                      A#
So kick off your boots and bed down your horse
      F                          A#     A#7
Cause there ain't no home on the range
 
 
[Outro]
         D#                     A#
You're a little too old to play cowboy
          D#                   F
well it's high time you made a change
   D#                      A#
So kick off your boots and bed down your horse...
