Thank The Cowboy For The Ride

C                         F
Well he was pushing seven, she was barely five
   G                                   C
He rode up on his broomstick horse and said, you wanna ride?
    C                               F                     Dm
His boots made a funny sound 'cause they were his daddy's size
    G                                C
His hat keep slippin' down below his eyes

         F               G               C
And they rode off in the sunset down the sidewalk
    F              G               C
She laughed at him every time that he talked
    F                    G              C              F
His two front teeth were missin' but he had the cutest smile
G                              C
She thanked the cowboy for the ride

C                         F
Well he was seventeen the next time he rode up
G                         C
She'd never seen inside a pickup truck
C                                       F            Dm
Well, he was tall and handsome, smiling cuter than before
     G                             C
He'd grown up to fit them boots he wore

         F               G               C
And they rode off in the sunset down the highway
     F               G                C
They took their time gettin' home the back way
F               G                    C                 F
Later on in the front porch swing he pulled her to his side
    G                          C
She thanked the cowboy for the ride

        C                              F
Well he loved her since a child, she'd always felt the same
        G                                       C
So they settled down and hitched their dreams together
C                                           F                 Dm
And they raised two broomstick cowboys, and one little cowboy girl
   G                                  C
To know God paints the sunsets of the world

D                                 G
Well he's almost sixty-seven, and she'll admit to forty-nine
         A                                     D
He still loves her like a child, and she still feels the same
        D                             G              Em
Well he smiles a little slower at the twinkle in her eye
     A                            D
They still saddle up from time to time

         G               A             D
And they ride off in the sunset in the evening
G                  A               D
Stars as bright as if they'd never seen them
    G              A                  D                G
She never fails to say it before they go to sleep each night
        A                                  D
Well, I love you cowboy, thank you for the ride
        G               A                  D
Well, I love you cowboy, thank you for the ride
