Tom: C
C C C C
[Verse]
C
I've been walkin' these streets so long
C
Singin' the same old song
G
I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway
F
Where hustle's the name of the game
C
And nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain
G
There's been a load of compromisin'
F C
On the road to my horizon
F D7 G
But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me
[Chorus]
C Csus2 C C/G C4 C
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Cmaj7 C G
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
C Csus2 C C/G C4 C
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Cmaj7 C G
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
F C Dm C G
And offers comin' over the phone
[Verse]
C
I really don't mind the rain
C
And a smile can hide all the pain
G
But you're down when you're ridin' the train that's takin' the long way
F
And I dream of the things I'll do
C
With a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe
G
There's be a load of compromisin'
F C
On the road to my horizon
F D7 G
But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me
[Chorus]
C Csus2 C C/G C4 C
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Cmaj7 C G
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
C Csus2 C C/G C4 C
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Cmaj7 C G7
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
F C Dm C G Em7 G F C Em7 F G
And offers comin' over the phone
[Outro]
C Csus2 C C/G C4 C
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Cmaj7 C G7
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
C Csus2 C C/G C4 C
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Cmaj7 C G
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
C
Like a rhinestone cowboy
