ALL AROUND COWBOY OF 1964

by Chris LeDoux

D A Bm A

Folks used to think that I could ride any bronc or bull alive

G A

And maybe in my younger days I could

D A Bm A

But now I'm slowin' down a bit friends tell me that I should quit

G A D

And if I didn't love it so I would

A Bm A

I recall when folks thought I was great and all the riders used to hate

G A

To see my name upon the entry door

D A Bm A

'Cause I could ride and I could rope the others seemed to have no hope

G A D

Lookin' at the buckle that I wore

G A D

It said All Around Cowboy of 1964

G A

Long days and lucky breaks helped me along

G A D A G

Working hard and riding fast and sleeping in the cold

G A D

Made me All Around Cowboy of 1964

D A Bm A

Folks don't seem to realize the thrill I get from every ride

G A

That bronc feels like pure dynamite to me

D A Bm A

Scratched and bruised my body aches from the day to day abuse it takes

G A D

Lord only knows the way it sets me free

A Bm A

Now my days have shortened up I'm outa breaks and outa luck

G A

And things will never be the same old way

D A Bm A

As I look and shed a tear sometimes I can almost hear

G A D

The echos of the judges they would say

G A D

You're the All Around Cowboy of 1964

G A

Long days and lucky breaks helped me along

G A D A G

Working hard and riding fast and sleeping in the cold

G A D

Made me All Around Cowboy of 1964

G A D

Yes I'm the All Around Cowboy of 1964
