[Intro]

[Verse 1]

D                  C                   G

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

C        G                F        D

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

D              C                      G

Another place, where the faces are so cold

C             G              F        D

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

 

[Chorus]

C          G       F             D

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

C         G  F        D

I'm wanted,  dead or alive

C     G  F        D

Wanted,  dead or alive

...

[Verse 2]

D                  C                      G

Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days

C                G        F                 D

The people I meet, always go their separate ways

D                           C                      G

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

C                     G           F             D

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

 

[Chorus]

C           G      F             D

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

C         G  F        D

I'm wanted,  dead or alive

C     G  F        D

Wanted,  dead or alive

 
...
 

(Solo)

 

[Chorus]

C           G      F             D

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

C         G  F        D

I'm wanted,  dead or alive

 

[Verse 3]

D                         C                        G

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

C               G          F                 D

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

          D                     C        G

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

     C              G               F             D

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

 

[Chorus/Outro]

C                  G       F             D

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

C           G        F        D

I'm wanted (wanted), dead or alive

C                 G           F           D

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

C          G         F        D

I'm wanted (wanted), dead or alive

C       G      C       G

Dead or alive, dead or alive

C       G        F         D

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

C        G     C        G

Dead or alive, dead or alive

C        G     C        G

Dead or alive, dead or alive

C        G

Dead or alive
