Tom: Am Am Under the hot dessert sun C G Am Drinking cactus water Am Eating canned beans and barbecued spleens C G Am I'm on a journey with just me and my horse C G Am Rusty stars on my dirty boots Am It's hard bein' a rubber cowboy C G Am In an aimless ride-along alone Am On my rubber rhinestone horse C G Am We're slowly sinkin' in the sandy dessert sand C G Am We are taking the long way home Am My melted rubber cattle C G Am Is a psychedelic trail of goop Am Sizzlin' and bubblin' all over C G Am Melted friends sure are quieter C G Am When they're all just trail of blubber Am I'm a lonely rubber cowboy C G Am I dreamt of lights shining on me Am But not like this, Lord!, Not like this C G Am Slowly melting in the sandy dessert sand C G Am A lone survivor of the sweltering sun [brigde] Dm G Am It was a greater slaughter Dm G Am Than the battle with copper indians Dm G Am Popping bottle cap guns Dm G Am But no match for the mighty Sun [Outro] Am This neverending road im on C G Am Ill be another psychedelic trail Am Soon with my rubber comrades C G Am Im no rhinestone cowboy afterall C G Am Im a lonely rubber cowboy C G Am A melting rubber cowboy
