G                      Em
When they open the gate, I'll be riding for eight
 C                D
Sometimes I hit the ground
   G                      Em
Face-down in the mud in front of my love
 C                D
In another cowboy town
   G                      Em
If I lose my money, it's alright, honey
 C                D
I can always count on you
   G                      Em
To ride your best, to win the west
 C       D         G
The way you always do


[Chorus]
   G                      Em
And we're gonna ride tonight
 C                  D
If I can keep it in the middle, babe
   G                      Em
Everything will work out fine
 C                D
I've already won the world
           G             Em
just having you by my side
 C          D
My rodeo girl


[Verse 2]
   G                      Em
The way you patch me up when I'm busted up
 C                D
You know just what to do
   G                      Em
My lovely little rodeo cowgirl
 C                D
Always pulls me through
   G                      Em
You take the reigns and you ease my pain
 C                D
When I'm broken, battered, and bruised
   G                      Em
You know me, honey I'll always be a
 C       D       G
lovestruck buckaroo


[Chorus]
   G                      Em
And we're gonna ride tonight
 C                  D
If I can keep it in the middle, babe
   G                      Em
Everything will work out fine
 C                D
I've already won the world
           G             Em
just having you by my side
 C          D
My rodeo girl

[Verse 3]
   G                      Em
Well you're sitting on top of the tenth go 'round
 C                D
Under Sin City lights
   G                      Em
You got nothing to lose, so turn her head loose
 C             D
Let that pony fly
   G                      Em
I've been looking for you from the back of the chutes
 C                D
I've got one left to go
   G                      Em    D
And win or lose, I still have you
 C          D          G
So either way I won the gold


[Chorus]
   G                      Em
And we're gonna ride tonight
 C                  D
If I can keep it in the middle, babe
   G                      Em
Everything will work out fine
 C                D
I've already won the world
           G             Em
just having you by my side
 C          D
My rodeo girl
G             Em
Yeah, you're my rodeo
  C          D   G Em C D
You’re my rodeo girl
