[Intro 1]
[Am][Dm][F][Gsus4][G][Gsus4][Dm][F][Gsus4]

[Verse 1]
I got [Am]a scar on my [F]third knuckle
[Gsus4]From stre[G]tching barb[Gsus4]ed
[C]wire [Gsus4]fence
And my [Am]fist got me outta [F]more trouble
Than it's [G]ever [Gsus4]got me in[G]

[Verse 2]
[Am]Rawhide rope and bronc[F]s I've broke
Have [Gsus4]left 'em bent and brui[C]sed[Gsus4]
If you [Am]really wanna [F]know a man
His [Gsus4]hand s always tell the truth

[Verse 3]
[Am]There's hands that hold more [F]foldin'
money [Gsus4]than mine ever[C] will[Gsus4][C]
[Am]Hands that hold the [F]power to make
the world [G]turn [Gsus4]or stand still[C]
[Am]Some'll lose their [F]grip and let go
[G]when it [Gsus4]hits the [C]fan
But [F]none of them'll [C]hold you
like a [Gsus4]ranch han[G]d c[Gsus4]an
[Am][Dm][Am][Dm][F][Gsus4][G][Gsus4][G]

[Verse 4]
[Gsus4]They start early in [Am]the morning[F]
Work [G]'til [Gsus4]the night
comes creep[C]ing
Come [Am]home and light a wood [F]stove fire
And [Gsus4]love you all damn[C] evening

[Verse 5]
They'll [Am]be your strong a[F]nd steady
When [Gsus4]your hear[G]t's
[Gsus4]on the li[G]ne[C][Gsus4]
[C]Girl, [Am]put your hand in m[F]y hand
We'll out[Gsus4]last the
hands of [C]time

[Verse 6]
There's [Am]hands that hold more [F]foldin'
[Gsus4]money than min[G]e ever wil[C]l
[Am]Hands that hold the [F]power to make
[G]the world turn or stand [C]still
[Am]Some'll lose their [F]grip and let go
[Gsus4]when it hits the [C]fan[G]
[C]But non[F]e of them can[C] hold you like
[Gsus4]a ranch hand c[Am]an[F][Gsus4]
Like a ranch [C]hand [Am]can
[F][Gsus4]

[Verse 7]
[G]
There's [Am]hands that hold more [F]foldin'
[Gsus4]money than mine ever will
[Am]Hands that hold [F]the power to make
the [G]world [Gsus4]turn or stan[G]d still
[Am]Some'll lose their [F]grip and let
go [Gsus4]when it hits the fan[C][G]
[C]But[F] none of them can[C] hold you
like [Gsus4]a ranch hand c[Am]an[C]
[F]None of [C]them'll hold you like [Gsus4]a ranch hand can

From [G]stretchin' [Gsus4]barbed- wire f[C]ence
And it'll [Am]hide underneath the [F]ring
That I'll [G]wear if [Gsus4]you say "[C]yes"
