[Verse]
       D
Well rumor has it so they say
          G
She was broke down on the highway
           D
She was checkin' it out
                        A
She was underneath the hood
           D                                G
When up rolled some country boys up to no good and makin' noise
     D            A                        D
To help the lady out like a good ole boy should
     D
The two came up on each side and said
      G
Hey honey you want a ride
      D                                      A
One winked and the other gave her a little pinch
     D                            G
And so the story goes she hauled off and broke his nose
            D              A                D
With her daddy's diamond horseshoe monkey wrench

[Chorus]
          G             D              A            D
She's a high-stakin', heart breakin', absolutely breath- takin'
  G          D              A                            G      D              A
Make no mistakin', she's mighty hard of holdin', many cowboys tried, many a cowboy dang near died
            G      A            D
She's no sweet - heart of the rodeo

[Verse 2]
D                                             G
Well pretty girls these days get straight on top in so many ways
           D                              A
Things in show biz and those glamour magazines
               D                          G
Nah she's not one to befriend the latest so called fashion trend
             D            A              D
She just naturally looks fine in those tight blue jeans

[Chorus]
          G             D              A            D
She's a high-stakin', heart breakin', absolutely breath- takin'
  G          D              A                            G      D              A
Make no mistakin', she's mighty hard of holdin', many cowboys tried, many a cowboy dang near died
            G      A            D
She's no sweet - heart of the rodeo

[Bridge]
               G                D
No she's no sweetheart of the rodeo
                 A                D
Boys you been warned so now you know
              G               D
So straighten up and act your age
                           A        G
You'll be lookin' down the barrel
         D
Of her daddy's 12 guage


          G             D              A            D
She's a high-stakin', heart breakin', absolutely breath- takin'
  G          D              A                            G      D              A
Make no mistakin', she's mighty hard of holdin', many cowboys tried, many a cowboy dang near died
            G      A            D
She's no sweet - heart of the rodeo

              G              D                 A        D
Lord she's a high-stakin', heart breakin', absolutely breath- takin'
  G          D              A                            G      D              A
Make no mistakin', she's mighty hard of holdin', many cowboys tried, many a cowboy dang near died
            G      A            D
She's no sweet - heart of the rodeo
              G       A           D
No she's no sweet - heart of the rodeo
