[D][G][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]And he was
born in the city
He taught high school [A]history
[G]His thoughts drift to the [D]past
Stories of yesterday
Tales of the west[A]ern way
[G]Slowly grew wings with [D]his plans
Until he [Em]left that brick prison
that [A]some folks call school
With a [Em]second hand pack and a [A]sign

[Verse 2]
[D]Working with carnivals
Ten shows and gambling [G]halls
He blew it all [D]to get high
And he's a [Em]high hand with
the ladies and a [A]hell raiser too
He [Em]lives in the world that
[A]he most wanted to

[Verse 3]
Oh, he [D]wanted to be a [A]rodeo rider
Sil[G]ver trim saddles [D]shine for the [A]crowd
He'll [D]end all his days ridin'
fence in [G]Montana
On the high ground his
[D]dreamin' gets done
He sings [Bm]oh, all m[A]y life,
[Em]oh m[A]y life[D]
[A][G][D]

[Verse 4]
[D]Year after year he'd go follow [A]the spurs
Rope [G]'em off,
drawn to candle flame [D]light
Year after year he'd go follow that road
[A]And [G]he'll be too old to rid[D]e
[Em]Twelve years after college
he's got [A]nothin' to show
That [Em]paper just hangs on [A]the wall

[Verse 5]
Oh, he [D]wanted to be a [A]rodeo rider
[G]Silver trim saddles [D]shine for the [A]crowd
He'll [D]end all his days ridin'
fence in [G]Montana
On the high ground his
[D]dreamin' gets done
He sings [Bm]oh, all m[G]y [A]life[Em],
[A]oh [D]my life

[Interlude 1]
[D][Dsus4][G][D][G]
[D]

[Verse 6]
[D]Last year in Santa Fe
he took up his final pay
[G]And took everything except his [D]pride
Busted up, bruised and spent,
old bones too tired [G]to mend
Dimmed all the lights in [D]his eyes
[Em]He and his lady gonna
[A]move to Montana
[Em]Build them a home on a [A]big sky ranch

[Verse 7]
Oh, he [D]wanted to be a [A]rodeo rider
Sil[G]ver trim saddles [D]shine for the [A]crowd
He'll [D]end all his days ridin'
fence in [A]Montana[G]
On the high ground his
[D]dreamin' gets done
He sings [Bm]oh, all m[A]y [Em]life,
[A]oh my [D]life
