Verse
F# B F# F#7
G# campfire some coffee from a tin cup in my hand
B F# F#7
Sure warms the fingers when it's cold
F# B F# F#7
A-playing an old guitar a friend I understand
G#7 C# C#7
Sure smoothes the wrinkles in my soul
[Verse]
F# B F# F#7
Sleeping in the moonlight a blanket for the bed
B F# F#7
Leaves a peaceful feeling in my mind
F# B F# D#m
Waking up in the morning with an eagle overhead
D#m F# C# C#7 F#
Makes me want to fly away before my time
[Chorus]
F# F#7 B
And I think God must be a cowboy at heart
B C# C#7 F# C#7
He made wide-open spaces from the start
C#7 F# F#7 B
He made grass and trees and mountains and a horse to be a friend
B C# C#7 F# F#7
And trails to lead old cowboys home again
[Verse]
B F# F#7
Night life and big cities is alright for awhile
B F# F#7
Sure makes you feel good when you're there
F#7 B F# D#m
But the country's so pretty it goes on and on for miles
G#7 C# C#7
Takes away my troubles and my cares
[Chorus]
C#7 F# F#7 B
And I think God must be a cowboy at heart
B C# C#7 F# C#7
He made wide-open spaces from the start
C#7 F# F#7 B
He made grass and trees and mountains and a horse to be a friend
B C# C#7 F# C#7
And trails to lead old cowboys home again
[Tag]
C# C#7 F#
And trails to lead old cowboys home again
