[Verse 1]
Em G Am Asus2
Everybody wanna know where did all the cowboys go?
Em G Am Asus2
Musta been the whiskey, maybe it was all the Marlboros
Em G
But it ain't none of that, we laid 'em low
Am
Yeah, believe me I know
[Chorus]
Em G
It was that midnight stare
Am Asus2
Look in her eyes like a knife to the heart
Em G
And it was that poison kiss
Am Asus2
Cherry red lips, oh my God, leaning up against the bar
Em G
And I know it wasn't a smoke, it wasn't a drink
Am Asus2
And I've got the proof
Em G Am
If you wanna know what killed the cowboy
N.C.
A girl like you
[Verse 2]
Em G Am Asus2
The way she does her run just another rodeo
Em G Am Asus2
Lipstick kiss on the mirror, that was how she wrote
Em G
Yeah it's supposed to be me riding away
Am
But I'm tied in a bed she made
[Chorus]
Em G
It was that midnight stare
Am Asus2
Look in her eyes like a knife to the heart
Em G
And it was that poison kiss
Am Asus2
Cherry red lips, oh my God, leaning up against the bar
Em G
And I know it wasn't a smoke, it wasn't a drink
Am Asus2
And I've got the proof
Em G Am
If you wanna know what killed the cowboy
Am
Ooh (a girl like you)
[Instrumental]

Cmaj7
Well she's off in the sunset, she's out on a run
D6
Bet she's halfway to Jackson by now
Cmaj7
And I'm heartbroke to hell and I'm drowned in the well
D6
While I'm telling a bartender how
[Chorus]
Em G
It was that midnight stare
Am Asus2
Look in her eyes like a knife to the heart
Em G
And it was that poison kiss
Am Asus2
Cherry red lips, oh my God, leaning up against the bar
Em G
And I know it wasn't a smoke, it wasn't a drink
Am Asus2
And I've got the proof
Em G Am
If you wanna know what killed the cowboy
Em G
A girl like you
Am
A girl like you
N.C.
A girl like you
