[Verse 1]
D                G            D
I've cursed some early Sunday mornings
                G                    D
I've stayed out late, drank too much wine
                      G     D
And I've gone off without a warning
    E7                        A7   D
And let you down from time to time
         G              D
But I've always kept my promise
             G               E7
This wedding ring on my left hand
G                       A
Let them cowboys be the heroes
          A7           D   G  D  G  A  D
I'll just be an honest man

[Verse 2]
                   G                D
Well, I'm a little rough around the edges
        G               D
And sometimes I lose my tone
      G                    D
Gonna face some real tough stretches
    E7                          A7   D
And we'll just take 'em as they come
            G                 D
And girl, I know how much you trust me
           G              E7
And know I wear it like a brand
G                       A
Let them cowboys be the heroes
          A7           D    G  D  A  G
I'll just be an honest man

[Chorus]
                  D    G
Just take me as I am
                   D     G
I'll do the best I can
                              D
And know the truth is hard to find
E7                     A     A7
Bet on it every single time

[Outro]
D              G              D
Well, come and put your arms around me
             G                E     G
And put your heart here in my hands
                        A
Let them cowboys be the heroes
          A7           D   G  D  G
I'll just be an honest man
                        A
Let them cowboys be the heroes
          A7           D   G   D
I'll just be an honest man
