   THE COWBOY IN ME    Tim McGraw
D
I don't know why I act the way I do
D                   A               D
A guy ain't got a single thing to lose
D
Sometimes I'm my own worst enemy
D                         A       D
I guess that's just the cowboy in me
D 
I've got a life that most would love to have
D                   A               D      
Sometimes I still wake up fighting mad
D    
and where this road I'm heading down might lead
D                          A       D         
I guess that's just the cowboy in me

CHORUS:
      D
The first to run with restlessness
      D
The heart of stone I sometimes get
      D
The things I've done for foolish pride
    A
To me that's never satisfied
 D   
To face what's in the mirror
        D                 G  
When I don't like what I see
    D                     A       D
I guess that's just the cowboy in me

lead, repeat chorus, to 2nd verse
D
Girl I know there's times you must have thought
D                           A               D
There ain't a line you've drawn I haven't crossed
D
But you set your mind to see this love on through
D                         A         D
I guess that's just the cowboy in you
D
We ride and never worry about the fall
D                          A          D
I guess that's just the cowboy in us all
