When The Rodeo Comes To Town Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][F][C][G][C]

[Verse 1]
[C]Most of the time,
things are pretty sublime in this little one horse [G]town
Well they close all the stores
and they roll up the steets
[F]When the even[G]ning sun goes [C]down
But the fourth of July flags
will be flying high
As folks come from miles [F]around
They'll be roarin' all night till
the [C]dawns early light
When the [G]big rodeo comes to town
[C]

[Verse 2]
Well there ain't no top names of rodeo fame
no Tibbs [G]nor Larry Mahans
Just some local cowboys out to
make 'em some noise
But they [F]know every[G]one
in the stand[C]s
They're clean and they're wild
with tobacco stained smiles
And they don't care if
they make [F]a dime
If they win or they lose well they
[C]don't give a hoot
They're [G]out just to have
a good [C]time[F][C]

[Verse 3]
There's [F]cowboys and ladies
and old folks and babies
And young girls with stars
in their eye[C]s
[G]Flashy bronc riders and whisker'ed old
timers [F]tellin' their [G]stores [C]and lies
There's [F]cold beer and Brandy
and pink cotton candy
When it's all over they'll
all head on [C]down
To the [G]rodeo dance some
midnight romance
When the big rodeo comes

[Interlude 1]
to town
[C][F][C][G][C]

[Verse 4]
The [C]bands playing loud to
that dance hall crowd
As boots stir the dust on [G]the floor
At the bar they're playin'
old Willie and Whalen
As [F]beers disap[G]pear by [C]the score
But hangovers I'll bet they'll
soon forget
When the next year comes
rollin' [F]around
They'll be at it again with
[C]all of their friends
When the [G]big rodeo comes to town
