Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[D][D]

[Verse 1]
I [D]grew up a- dreamin' of bein' a cowboy
[G]And lovin' the cowboy way[D]s
Pursuin' the life of my high-ridin' heroes
[E]I burned up my childhood day[A]s
[D]I learned all the rules
of a modern-day drifter
[G]Don't you hold on to nothin' too lon[D]g
[G]Just take what you need
from the [D]ladies then [G]leave them
With the [D]words of a [A]sad country [D]song

[Chorus 1]
My [G]heroes
have always been [D]cowboys
[E]And they still are, it see[A]ms
[G]Sadly, in search of, but one[D] step in bac[G]k of
Them[A]selves and their slow-movin' [D]dreams

[Verse 2]
[D]Cowboys are special
with their own brand of misery
[G]From being alone too [D]long
You can die from the cold
in the arms of a nightmare
Knowin' [E]well that your best days [A]are gone
[D]Pickin' up hookers instead of my pen
I let the [G]words of my youth fade a[D]way
[G]Old worn-out saddles
and [D]old worn-out [G]memories
But [D]no one and [A]no place to [D]stay

[Chorus 2]
[G]My heroes
have always been [D]cowboys
[E]And they still are, it see[A]ms
[G]Sadly, in search of, but [D]one step in [G]back of
Them[A]selves
and their slow-movin' [D]dreams
[G]Sadly, in search of, but [D]one step in [G]back of
Them[A]selves and their slow-movin' [G]dreams[D]
