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