Them Bareback Horses Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Them bareback horses are
the only thing
[G]They make your back hurt they
make your bell ring
They're [A]hard on tailbones and
they make your neck sore
But when it's all over
you're craving some [D]more

[Verse 2]
[D]
Well you drive down the road
in a broke down car
[G]You stop in some town you wonder
where in the hell you are
You [A]get yourself a road map
and head out once again
With only enough for fees so
you'd damn sure better [D]win
You [G]fi nally make the pitchin'
with your [D]entry fees all paid
You get on [A]another snatcher
and [D]he flings you away
So you head to town broken
hearted [G]lookin' for a chance
To [A]get a little drunk and find
some girl [D]and dance
Well you meet a little girl
at [G]the bar all alone
You [A]whoop some words on her
to get her [D]to take you home
But she's got a big boyfriend
who [G]just came from the can
And [A]he says move on there buddy
cause he's her lovin' [D]man
So [G]you climb back in your car after
your [D]little bitty fight
[A]You're drunk and broken hearted
And it's [D]twelve o'clock at night
And you ain't got a dime
in your old blue [G]jeans
But by God [A]you got a half a tank of gas
And a can of pork [D]and beans

[Verse 3]
[D]
You write a hot check to pay
your [G]fees once again
[A]You got yourself a good
one so you ought [D]to win
The horse is standin' in the chute
[G]then he bucks around
[A]The whistle blows then you're standin'
on the [D]ground
[G]The judges total their markings
and [D]they tally up the score
And [A]you're beatin' everybody
by at least [D]ten points or more
So you climb back in your car
with a pock[G]et full of cash
A good [A]feelin' in your heart
and a tank full of [D]gas
But boys the day finally comes
when you get old [G]and grey
[A]You gotta hang your spurs up and put your
rig[D]gin' away
You look back now with a wantin'
[G]eye
But brother [A]it's all gone
so you sit and cry
[D][A][D]
