[Intro 1]
[Em][G][Am][Em]

[Verse 1]
Everybody wanna know
where did all the [G]cowboys [Am]go?[D]
[Em]Musta been the whiskey,
maybe it was [G]all the [Em]Marlb[G]or[Am]os[Em]
But it ain't none of that,
that [G]laid 'em all low
[Am]Yeah, believe me I know
It was [Em]that

[Verse 2]
midnight [G]stare
Look in her [Am]eyes like a knife to the heart
It was that [Em]poison [G]kiss
Cherry red [Am]lips, oh my God,
leaning up against the bar
And I [Em]know it wasn't the smoke,
[G]it wasn't the[A] drink[Am]
And I've got the proof
If you wanna [Em]know what [G]killed the [Am]cowboy
A girl like you [Em](a girl [Am]like you)

[Verse 3]
[Em]Mm, the way she does it wasn't
just another [G]rodeo[Am]
[Em]Lipstick kiss on the mirror,
that [G]was all she [A]wrote[Am]
Yeah, it's [Em]sup posed
to be me [G]riding away
But I'm [Am]dying in a bed that she made
It was [Em]that

[Verse 4]
midnight [G]stare
Look in her [Am]eyes like a knife to the heart
And it was that [Em]poison [G]kiss
Cherry red [Am]lips, oh my God,
leaning up [A]against the bar
[D]And [Em]I know it wasn't the smoke,
[G]it wasn't the[Am] drink
And I've got the proof
If you wan[G]na [Em]know what
[G]killed the [A]cow[Am]boy
Ooh (a girl [Em]like [G]you[Am])

[Verse 5]
Well, she's [C]off in the sun[Em]set,
she's [C]out [Am]on t[C]he r[Em]un
Bet she's [D]halfway to Jackson by now
[G]And [C]I'm heartbroke to hell and
I'm drowning the well
While I'm [D]telling the bartender how
[Em]It was that

[Verse 6]
midnight [G]stare
Look in her [A]eyes like [Am]a knife to the heart
And it was [Bm]that [Em]poison [G]kiss
Cherry red [A]lips, oh [Am]my God,
leaning up against the bar
[D]And [Em]I know it wasn't the smoke,
[G]it wasn't the[A] drink[Am]
And I've got the proof
If you wan[G]na know[Em]
what [G]killed the cow[Am]boy
A girl like [Em]you [G](a girl like you)
[Am]
