Verse
A D A A7
B campfire some coffee from a tin cup in my hand
D A A7
Sure warms the fingers when it's cold
A D A A7
A-playing an old guitar a friend I understand
B7 E E7
Sure smoothes the wrinkles in my soul
[Verse]
A D A A7
Sleeping in the moonlight a blanket for the bed
D A A7
Leaves a peaceful feeling in my mind
A D A F#m
Waking up in the morning with an eagle overhead
F#m A E E7 A
Makes me want to fly away before my time
[Chorus]
A A7 D
And I think God must be a cowboy at heart
D E E7 A E7
He made wide-open spaces from the start
E7 A A7 D
He made grass and trees and mountains and a horse to be a friend
D E E7 A A7
And trails to lead old cowboys home again
[Verse]
D A A7
Night life and big cities is alright for awhile
D A A7
Sure makes you feel good when you're there
A7 D A F#m
But the country's so pretty it goes on and on for miles
B7 E E7
Takes away my troubles and my cares
[Chorus]
E7 A A7 D
And I think God must be a cowboy at heart
D E E7 A E7
He made wide-open spaces from the start
E7 A A7 D
He made grass and trees and mountains and a horse to be a friend
D E E7 A E7
And trails to lead old cowboys home again
[Tag]
E E7 A
And trails to lead old cowboys home again
