My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys

     D  
1. I grew up dreaming of being a cowboy  
2. Cowboys are special with their own brand of misery  
  
       G                 D  
1. And loving the cowboy ways.  
2. From being alone too long.  
  
    D  
1. Pursuing the life of my high riding heroes  
2. You could die from the cold in the arms of a nightmare  
  
     E7                                 A7  
1. I   burned   up   my    childhood    days.  
2. Knowing well that your best days are gone  
  
     D  
1. I learned all the rules of a moder day drifter  
2. Picking up hookers instead of my pen  
  
             G                      D  
1. DonŐt you hold on to nothing too long  
2. I let the words of my youth fade away.  
  
        G                           D            G  
1. Just take what you need from the ladies and   leave them  
2.      Old worn out saddles and    old worm out memories  
  
            D          A7          D  
1. With the words of a sad country song.  
2.     With no one and no place to stay.  
  
Chorus  
   G                       D  
My heroes have always been cowboys  
E7                    A7  
And they still are it seems  
G                      D           G  
Sadly in search of and one step in back of  
    D                A7          D  
Themselves and their slow moving dreams.  
  
This song is in 3/4 time. It sounds best if you hit the bass note of the   
chord on the first beat of each measure. You might want to put in some bass  
runs like A-B-C#-D between A and D chords where it sounds right.
