Tom: Am
Am C F E
Am C F E Am
[Chorus]
Am C
Take me to the wild wild west
F E Am
I'll wear my finest dress to your midnight rodeo
Am C
Take me on your fastest ride
F F E
Like Bonnie and Clyde down the darkest back road
Am Am C F E
I'll keep on holdin' tight to you until we see tomorrow
Am Am C
Up and down, round and round, eight seconds ain't enough
F E Am
And I can't help it but, I'm in love with a cowboy
[Verse]
Am
The only time you see me is when the thunder clashes
Am C
In the middle of the night with the wolves in action
F
And despite a dead body, you straight up makin' her say
F E Am
I'm in love, I'm in love with a cowboy
Am
She's in love with a mystery, if I do point blank
Am C
Cause I stay ridin' through towns, like I don't ever even stay
F
I'm just cruisin' the coast with about five hundred horses
F E
No brakes at my feet 'cause all I know is to floor it
Am
And she stands at the porch askin' why can't I go
Am C
I tell her flirtin' with disaster is something that I know
F
I'll be back when the sun sinks down in the hills
F E
Trenchcoat pulled tight, six gun on my hip
Am
Lit Marlboro Red hangin' out of my lips
Am C
Call me the Lonesome Dove, I disappear in the mist
F
Of the Clydesdale hooves click clack to a swamp song
F E Am
By the time I told her, you know I'll already be gone (Gone)
[Chorus]
Am C
Take me to the wild wild west
F E Am
I'll wear my finest dress to your midnight rodeo
Am C
Take me on your fastest ride
F F E
Like Bonnie and Clyde down the darkest back road
Am Am C F F C
I'll keep on holdin' tight to you until we see tomorrow
Am Am C
Up and down, round and round, eight seconds ain't enough
F F E Am
And I can't help it but, I'm in love with a cowboy
[Verse]
Am
The wild west is a land for a gamblin' man
Am C
But no pretty lady holds two rough hands
F
Cause these hands got a quick draw for these stars
F E
Hit the bullseye point blank, one shot from afar
Am
These boots been through the kill and hot mud
Am C
I leave the heartbreak to the dive of the FL
F
When I turn on that road put on the fancy dress
F E Am
And slip them high heels on, put that sequin to rest, uh
[Bridge]
Am C
I'll take you to the wild wild west
F F E
Where they gunsling the best and the whiskey's like gasoline
Am Am C
Make me runaway with you in a smoky saloon
F F E Am
And make up for the nights that I was missin' you
[Chorus]
Am C
Take me to the wild wild west
F F E Am
I'll wear my finest dress to your midnight rodeo
Am C
Take me on your fastest ride
F F E
Like Bonnie and Clyde down the darkest back road
Am Am C F F E
I'll keep on holdin' tight to you until we see tomorrow
Am Am C
Up and down, round and round, eight seconds ain't enough
F F
And I can't help it but
E Am Am C F
I'm in love with a cowboy
F E Am
I'm in love, I'm in love with a cowboy
[Outro]
Am C F E
Am C F E
Am C F E
Am C F E
