D  G
 
 
[Verse]

        D
I ain't old
            G
But I'm old enough to know
D                      G
Wasn't really all that long ago
D            
I could rope 
        G
I could ride or 

rob a train
A                 
Be back home when 
     G
the dinner bell rang
 
 
[Verse]

D                       G
That was life it was outside day and night
D                       
I never felt what being 
G
fenced in felt like
D                   G
All I knew was wide open and

 running free
A                 
Who'd have thought 
     G
I'd grow up to be 
 
 
[Chorus]

     G              A
That cap gun cowboy kid I was
D                         Bm
Hot on the trail when the sun came up
G                   A
Chasin' those crazy dreams in my head
         D
Like the wild west Jesse James 

John Wayne's did
G              A
Now and then I saved the world
D                    Bm
Rescued and rode off with the girl
     G                  A
It's finally all adding up
     G             A
Oh I am who I am because
        G                    A   D  G
Of that cap gun cowboy kid I was
 
 
[Verse]

D                 G
I don't know exactly where or when
D                 G
I traded my old palomino in
         D           
For that blonde pawn 
        G
shop ol beat up guitar
A                   G
And saddled up this shooting star
 
 
[Chorus]

          G              A
Like that cap gun cowboy kid I was
D                     
Hot on the trail 
         Bm
when the sun came up
G                   A
Chasin' those crazy dreams in my head
         D
Like the wild west Jesse James 

John Wayne's did
G              A
Now and then I saved the world
D                    Bm
Rescued and rode off with the girl
     G                   A
Yeah I wouldn't change a thing
     G             A
Oh I am who I am because
        G                  A    D
Of that cap gun cowboy kid I was
 
 
[Bridge]
                 G
I tried to raise you up
       D
Not to be like me
                Bm           
Cause I'm a thunder storm,
                  D
 rolling stone, a tumbleweed
        G
But I'm sorry son
          A
I look at you and see
 
 
[Chorus]

     G              A
That cap gun cowboy kid I was
D                
Hot on the trail 
         Bm
when the sun came up 
G                   A
Chasin' those crazy dreams in my head
         D
Like the real McCoy Jesse James 

John Wayne's did
     G              
Those memories are 
              A
as good as it gets
     Bm            A/C#
Oh I am who I am because
        G                  A D
Of that cap gun cowboy kid I was
 
 
[Outro]

G  D  G       D   G  D
