Tom: C

     C                 G
Some day when I'm a TV cowboy
                 C
In the Hollywood Hills
                     G
I'll sleep under the starlets
                 C
And take lots of pills
          F                      C
I'll wear alligator boots and designer jeans
F                            C
Lasso through the roof of my limousine
            F               C             G
I'll be the grandest cowboy on the silver screen
                C
Yippie-ki-yo-ki-yay


[Interlude] (in background, behind dialogue)
Yodel-ay-ee-oh, yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh, yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh, yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh, yodel-ay-ee


[Verse 2]
C                   G
I'll find a special lady
                   C
And at night we'll ride
                      G
The only gun shootin' blanks
              C
will be at my side
             F                   C
well, she'll be my Dale and I'll be her Roy
             F                       C
we'll ride together on the trail to eternal joy
                F                       C           G
'cause you have sex with a partner when you're a TV cowboy
                C
yippie-ki-yo-ki-yay Yee-haw


[Interlude] (in background, behind dialogue)
Yodel-ay-ee-oh, yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh, yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh, yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh, yodel-ay-ee


[Outro]
            F                   C
well, she'll be my Dale and I'll be her Roy
             F                        C
we'll ride together on the trail to eternal joy
              F                 C           G
'cause you're never lonely when you're a TV cowboy
                C
yippie-ki-yo-ki-yay
F                    G               C
yippie-ki-yippie-ki- yippie-ki-yo-ki-yay.
