verse 1 
intro (G G C C G G C C G G C C G G C C) 
          G   C              G 
He don't cry, when he falls down 
               Em    C           D 
And he's been known, to hit the ground 
                 G                               C     F 
There ain't too much, that could tear his world apart 
            G    D              G      C 
A cowboy's born, with a broken heart 
 
verse 2 
              G      C            G 
So if you're trying, to make him blue 
               Em  C             D 
You're better off, with someone new 
                  G                             C       F          
'Cause he's been lonesome, right from the very start 
            G    D              G          
A cowboy's born, with a broken heart 

C                               Bm 
God gave him his common sense, he learned young to mend a fence 
Am                                              G         
But he keeps all his feelings locked inside 
C                                     Bm 
He was taught to rope and brand, and always be an honest man 
    Am          G                 F      D        
But if it ever comes down to his pride  
 
verse 3 
              G  C                   G 
Just let him go, it ain't worth the fight 
           Em    C               D 
He may be wrong, but he's still right 
                  G                             C      F           
'Cause he's been lonesome, right from the very start 
            G    D              G                         
A cowboy's born, with a broken heart
