[Verse 1]
[Em]Forty-four's no no [G]age to start [D]again,
But the [Em]bulls were getting [G]tough and
he was [A]never free of pain
Where [C]others blew their
winnings getting [Bm]tanked,
[Em]Most of his got [A]banked
sav[G]ing for the [D]farm.

[Verse 2]
He [Em]never thought she'd
[G]wait for him [D]at all.
She [Em]wanted more than [G]broken
bones and [A]trophies on the wall;
But [C]when he quit and finally got [Bm]the farm,
She [Em]ran into his a[A]rms and
[G]now they've got a [D]kid.

[Verse 3]
He [A]was star of all the rodeos
[Em]but now thet rob him [G]blind.
It took [A]eighteen years of Brahma
bulls and [Em]life on the [G]line
To [A]get his spread and a decent herd,
[C]But now he spends his [G]time
pulling [D]night [A]guard.

[Verse 4]
[Em]He told her that he'd [G]got it for the [D]game,
A [Em]"Winnie" [G]303 with his
ini[A]tials on the frame
[C]Riding in the scabbard at his [Bm]knee.
To[Em]night he's gonna [A]see
Who's [G]getting all the stock[D].

[Verse 5]
Sev[Em]enth one this sum[G]mer
[D]yester[Em]day;
Half a year of [G]profits gone,
and [A]now there's hell to pay.
The [C]cops say they know who,
but there's no [Bm]proof.
The [Em]banker hit [A]the roof,
and [G]damn near took the [D]car.

[Verse 6]
He was [A]star of all the rodeos but
[Em]now thet rob him b[G]lind.
It took [A]eighteen years of Brahma
bulls and [Em]life on the [G]line
To [A]get his spread and a decent herd,
[C]But now he spends his [G]time pulling [D]night

[Verse 7]
He [Em]hears the wire pop
[G]ping by [D]the road;
[Em]Sees the blacked out [G]Reo
coming [A]for another load.
[C]This time, it's not one
they take [Bm]but two;
Two [Em]minutes and they're [A]through,
and [G]laughing in the [D]cab.

[Verse 8]
And [Em]here'll be the [G]end
of this [D]tonight,
'Cause [Em]all the proof h[G]e needs
is [A]lying sready in his sights.
It [C]may be just the worst
thing he could [Bm]do
But [Em]he squeezes off [A]a few,
then [G]make his call to [D]town.
