“Hang on Cowboy”

D Bm F#m A

Brent told mom it’s how you ride not how you look

So don’t shine my boots

D Bm F#m A

She told Brent it’s how you look when you win

D

So let me shine them again

G D Bm A

And as he headed for the rodeo she just smiled and said

G Bm

Just hold on tight son and don’t let go

F#m A

Are the only two things you need to know…

(chorus)

D Bm F#m

Just hang on cowboy hang on for me

A D

I’m your biggest fan it ain’t that hard to see

Bm F#m

Hang on cowboy to all your dreams

A D

Give ‘em hell but just come back home to me

D Bm F#m

Brent went on to ride at the show

A

He wouldn’t stop till he was at the top

D Bm F#m

Dad stayed calm by the telephone

A D

Didn’t sleep at all till he got the call

G D

Brent said I’m eight seconds away from fame

Bm A

Dad do you think I can?

G Bm

And he just sighed and then replied

F#m A

I’ve never had more faith in a man

(repeat chorus)

A

And he gave his life for what he loved

G A

But his memory won’t ever die

Bm G A

And we all know the Lord and he look from above

G

And we can see him hangin’ on

A D

To that big blue Texas sky

(solo)

(repeat chorus)
