Waylon Jennings - All Around Cowboy guitar chord

All Around Cowboy

written by Jack Routh and Len Pollard

from the Buddha reissue of "Dreaming My Dreams"

Corrections welcome. Tabbed 6/5/05

INTRO: D

D G

Just a broken down cowboy all down on his luck

A D

Been thru the best of his friends

G

On a long lonesome in an old pickup truck

A D

Crossed Texas like a hot dusty wind

He was all around cowboy back in '49

From the top it's been a long way down

Since the whiskey and the womens started winnin' his time

They rode him high and hard to the ground

CHORUS:

G D

He remembers the thrill of bein' a winner

In the days of his first rodeo

G D

But there's somethin' about winnin' that didn't last forever

G D

Maybe tomorrow things'll get better

C A

If the Devil lets loose of his soul

D

He'll be the all around cowboy again

So he rolls up a smoke sips his Old Crow

Wipes the whiskers that cover his chin

And he grins as he dreams of old rodeos

He's the all around cowboy again

CHORUS
