Hide Lyrics Hint
[C] [G] [F] .
[C] [G] [C] .
Pushing horns weren't easy [F] like the movie [C] says it was.
I don't remember dance hall [G] girls or hotel rooms and rugs.
[C] You worked hard, but tired and nasty, [F] rolled your ponies [C] head too low.
And all them [G] nights you couldn't sleep, [F] cause it was too damn cold.
And [C] we sang [G] Strawberry Road, [C] Little Jewel.
.
Like the time we hit the river [F] and the rain [C] begun to fall.
The water rising so damn [G] fast, thought it'd drown us all.
[C] Now we lost a lot of steers that day, [F] and four or [C] five good miles.
But when all the [G] boys rode into camp, [F] you knew that's what counts.
And [C] we sang Whoopee [G]-Tie, Amazing [C] Grace.
.
For the night they broke behind us, [F] and they took us [C] by surprise.
I whistled out to Bonner, [G] I saw the terror in his eye.
[C] And he rode for all his horse would [F] ride, I know [C] he done his best.
But he [G] crossed over Jordan, [F] riding Dunny to his death.
And [C] we sang, bringing [G] in the sheaves and [C] the rugged cross.
.
[F] [C] [G] .
[C] [A] [D] When you see the cowboy, [G] he's not ragged [D] by his choice.
And he never meant to both him [A] legs, or put that gravel in his voice.
[D] Just chasing what he really [G] loves, what's burning [D] in his soul.
Wishing to [A] hell that he'd been [G] born a hundred years ago.
Still [D] singing Strawberry [A] Road, [D] Little Jewel.
Still singing [A] Strawberry Road, [D] Little Jewel.
[G] [D] [A] [D] .
.
