[Intro]
Em Cadd9 G D  x2

[Verse 1]
        G              Cadd9
She's a gooseneck on a dually
  D                G
A long neck at the bar
      G              Cadd9
Loves old John Wayne movies
   D               G
Walzing under them stars
      G             Cadd9
She's sun up in the saddle
   D                G
Cutting through the heard
      G            Cadd9
Loves branding her cattle
D          G
Long live cowgirls

[Chorus]
          Em           Cadd9
Well, she rode in them wagons
         G             D
When the Wild West was won
         Em          Cadd9
Took the canyons and badlands
    G            D
And made 'em her home
      G         Am
She's boots on, LeDoux songs
  G          Cadd9
Snaps on her pearls
Cadd9  D     Em     Cadd9 G D
Long   live  cowgirls

[Verse 2]
       G               Cadd9
Like a paint-colored mustang
      D              G
She's fast and she's wild
       G           Cadd9
Stop a runaway freight train
         D             D
With her high country smile
      G          Cadd9
She's tough as December
 D           G
Salt of the earth
        G            Cadd9
Make ya fall like September
D          G
Long live cowgirls

[Chorus]
          Em           Cadd9
Well, she rode in them wagons
         G             D
When the Wild West was won
         Em          Cadd9
Took the canyons and badlands
    G            D
And made 'em her home
      G               Am
She's boots on, Chris LeDoux songs
  G          Cadd9
Snaps on her pearls

Till the end of the world
Cadd9  D     Em     Cadd9 G D
Long   live  cowgirls
