Restless Cowboys Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]My old friend Jim [A]sure did it to him.
He [Bm]broke his heart
and left him with no [G]reason to live.
[D]You told him that you loved him,
[A]but you never did.
When he [Bm]found out it was too late
to take back [G]those things he said.
now he's [D]living up in Birmingham
[A]at the edge of sanity
and I [Bm]nev er understand
single [G]thing he says to me
[D]how many restless cow[A]boys
will you settle down
how [Bm]many broken hearts
will you [G]drive back into town
and [D]how much barbed wire
Can [A]one woman drag around?
[Bm]How many restless cowboys
[G]will you settle down?
I remem[D]ber that boy you
[A]dated late last fall
He [Bm]was young and crazy
but he was [G]handsome and tall
He [D]could deal his hand,
[A]he could stand his ground
now he's [Bm]living in some halfway [A]house
out [G]on the edge of town
[D]how many restless cow[A]boys
will you settle down
[Bm]how many broken hearts
will you [G]drive back into town
[D]how much barbed wire
can [A]one woman drag around
[Bm]How many restless cowb[G]oys
will you settle [D]down?[A][Bm]
[G][Em][G][D][A]
[Bm][G]
I still [D]think of you sometimes
When the [A]moon is clear and still
I [Bm]guess that I love you
I [G]guess I always will
But you [D]broke my heart like a hurricane
[A]Breaks a fence post at the ground
And [Bm]I don't rope and ride much now,
I [G]just hang around
[D]How many restless cow[A]boys
will you settle down?
[Bm]How many broken hearts
will you [G]drive back into [Em]town?
[G]And[D] how much barbed wire
can one [A]wo man drag around?
[Bm]How many restless cowboys
[G]will you settle down?

[Outro 1]
