Well, [F#] I'm a-sittin' down in the San Antonio, waitin' on [D] an eight o'clock train.
[F#] My woman left me here last night, things [D] ain't been quite the same.
[F#] I gotta get back to Dallas and tie up [D] a few loose ends.
[F#] I'm gonna work a week, I'll make a hundred dollars, and hit [D] the road again.
I don't [G] want you to think that you're the first one to leave [D] me out here on my own.
[G] Cause this ain't gonna be [F#m] the first time [Em] this old [A] cowboy [D] spent the night alone.

[F#] Well, honey, I've been a fool, but a bigger fool.
I can't [D] remember when I've been.
Just [F#] to open up my heart and [D] let you walk right in.
[F#] But there's one thing in life that ain't [D] hard for me to do.
[F#] That's as soon as I kiss the lips of another woman, I'm [D] gonna forget all about you.
So I [G] don't want you to think that you're the first one to [D] leave me out here on my own.
[G] Cause this ain't gonna [F#m] be the first time [Em] this old cowboy [A] [D] spent the night alone.

Lord, if you wrote [F#] all the women's names down, I'd know, and let [D] me pick one out.
I [F#] don't believe there'd be one in the whole bunch, [Em]
[D] I'd give a hoot about.
So I don't [G] want you to think that you're the first one to leave [D] this old boy out here on his own.
[G] No, it ain't [D] gonna be the first [Em] time this old [A] cowboy spent [D] the night alone.

[G] [F#m] [Em]
