INTRO:  G C G C C D  
 
G 
We traveled down the road to bout every rodeo 
         C  
We could make the entry for 
G 
Me and my bud our Chaps and our spurs 
       C  
And an old '65 four door 
D                           G     C   
Chris Ledoux playin' on the radio 
C                                  D  
Not a care in the world except the next big rodeo 


 
Refrão -------------
            C          G  
Cause we're roughstock riders 
Em           C 
Taming Shoot fighters 
     Am 
On a train they will stop for no one 
                D 
Lookin down the barrel of a loaded gun 
    C                    G 
And some folks say we're crazy 
Em               C 
Some just plum insane 
    Am             D                  
But I know we were born to play this game

BREAK:  G C G C C D  
 
     G                        
It's not the kind of life most would want for their son 
          C    
It's seen many a man come undone 
        G  
And get stomped in the ground  
And there's nothing that a clown  
    C  
Can do when your time has come 
    D                                
But down the road with a little bit of luck 
      G            C 
And a whole lot of try 
              C   
There'll be a gold buckle waiting 
       D            
At the end of the next ride 
 
CHORUS:
