[Intro]

[Verse 1]

B                  A                   E

It's all the same, only the names will change

A        E                D        B

Ev'ry day, it seems we're wasting away

B              A                      E

Another place, where the faces are so cold

A             E              D        B

I'd drive all night, just to get back home

 

[Chorus]

A          E       D             B

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride

A         E  D        B

I'm wanted,  dead or alive

A     E  D        B

Wanted,  dead or alive

...

[Verse 2]

B                  A                      E

Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days

A                E        D                 B

The people I meet, always go their separate ways

B                           A                      E

Sometimes you tell the day, by the bottle that you drink

A                     E           D             B

And times when you're alone, and all you do is think

 

[Chorus]

A           E      D             B

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride

A         E  D        B

I'm wanted,  dead or alive

A     E  D        B

Wanted,  dead or alive

(Solo)

 

[Chorus]

A           E      D             B

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride

A         E  D        B

I'm wanted,  dead or alive

 

[Verse 3]

B                         A                        E

And I walk these streets, a loaded six string on my back

A               E          D                 B

I play for keeps, 'cause I might not make it back

          B                     A        E

I've been everywhere, still I'm standing tall

     A              E               D             B

I've seen a million faces, and I've rocked them all

 

[Chorus/Outro]

A                  E       D             B

'Cause I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride

A           E        D        B

I'm wanted (wanted), dead or alive

A                 E           D           B

Well, I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side

A          E         D        B

I'm wanted (wanted), dead or alive

A       E      A       E

Dead or alive, dead or alive

A       E        D         B

Dead or alive, I still ride (I still ride)

A        E     A        E

Dead or alive, dead or alive

A        E     A        E

Dead or alive, dead or alive

A        E

Dead or alive
