Verse
E A E E7
F# campfire some coffee from a tin cup in my hand
A E E7
Sure warms the fingers when it's cold
E A E E7
A-playing an old guitar a friend I understand
F#7 B B7
Sure smoothes the wrinkles in my soul
[Verse]
E A E E7
Sleeping in the moonlight a blanket for the bed
A E E7
Leaves a peaceful feeling in my mind
E A E C#m
Waking up in the morning with an eagle overhead
C#m E B B7 E
Makes me want to fly away before my time
[Chorus]
E E7 A
And I think God must be a cowboy at heart
A B B7 E B7
He made wide-open spaces from the start
B7 E E7 A
He made grass and trees and mountains and a horse to be a friend
A B B7 E E7
And trails to lead old cowboys home again
[Verse]
A E E7
Night life and big cities is alright for awhile
A E E7
Sure makes you feel good when you're there
E7 A E C#m
But the country's so pretty it goes on and on for miles
F#7 B B7
Takes away my troubles and my cares
[Chorus]
B7 E E7 A
And I think God must be a cowboy at heart
A B B7 E B7
He made wide-open spaces from the start
B7 E E7 A
He made grass and trees and mountains and a horse to be a friend
A B B7 E B7
And trails to lead old cowboys home again
[Tag]
B B7 E
And trails to lead old cowboys home again
