(A) He was pushin' seven, an (D)I was barely five
When he (E) rode up on his broomstick horse
And (A) said, 'You wanna ride?'
His boots made a funny sound
They (D) were his daddy's size
His (E) hat kept slippin' down below his (A) eyes
We (D) rode off in the (E) sunset, down the (A) sidewalk
I (D) laughed at him (E) every time (A) he talked
His (D) two front teeth were (E) missin'
But he (A) had the (E) cutest (D) smile
And I (E) thank the cowboy for the (A) ride (D A D)
(A) He was seventeen the (D) next time he showed up
And I had (E) never seen inside a (A) pick-up truck
Aw, he was tall and handsome
Smilin' (D) cuter than before
And (E) he'd grown up to fit the boots he (A) wore
We (D) rode off in the (E) sunset, down the (A) highway
We (D) took our time, (E) gettin' home the (A) back way
Later (D) on in the (E) front porch swing
He (A) pulled me (E) to his (D) side
And I (E) thank the cowboy for the (A) ride (D A D)
Well, he'd (A) loved me since a child And I'd (D) always felt the same
So, we (E) settled down And hitched our dreams (A) together
We (A) raised two broomstick cowboys And (D) one little cowboy, girl
To (E) know God paints the sunsets of the (A) world (A D A D A E A)
Spoken:
(A) Well, he's almost sixty-seven (Ha-ha) (D) I admit to fourty-nine!
He (E) loves me like a child And I still (A) feel the same
But he smiles a little slower At the (D) twinkle in my eyes
But (E) we still saddle up from time to (A) time
We (D) ride off in the (E) sunset, in the (A) evenin's
(D) Stars as bright as (E) if we've never (A) seen them
I (D) never fail to (E) say, before I (A) go to (E) sleep at (D) night
I (E) love you cowboy, thank you for the (A) ride
I (E) love you cowboy, thank you for the (A) ride. (D A D A E A)
