        C
I ain't never been with a woman long enough, 
Em
For my boots to get old.
F                                    C
We've been together so long now they both need resoled.
                      Em
If I ever settle down you'd be my kind 
           F                   G                C
And it's a good time for me to head on down the line.

Like to start dreamin about tomorrow today.
                             Em
Never said that I loved you, even thought it's so
             F             G                  C
Where's that duffle bag of mine? It's time to go.

Wish you could come but I don't need no woman taggin' along.
                                     Em
So I'll sneak out that door couldn't stand to see you cry.
          F                      G                 C

C                                         Em
I never had a damn thing but what I had I had to leave it behind.
F                               C
You're the hardest thing I ever tried to get off my mind.
                                Em
Always something greener on the other side of that hill.
             F                            G              C
I was born a wrangler and a rounder and I guess I always will
