[A] [D] And if heaven needs [G] a cowboy [D] they're getting a [A] Taipan
[D] One good horse [G] on a thousand hills [D] he'll be riding for [A] the brand
[Bm] And if the pearly gates [A] can't hold the cattle [D] he'll [A] get them roped [G] and tied
I hope [D] there's a piece of [G] the promised land [A] for cowboys when [D] they die

[D] [G] [A] [D] Left his saddle to [G] my sister, gave [D] his spurs to my [A] firstborn
And [D] I know I should [G] rejoice but still [D] my heart it has [A] been torn
