me and my buddies were all banged up after bronc and saddle bronc, sitting in the rain on an aluminum bench (well i was on the hood of my jeep, the engine was still warm) we were all ready to just call it quits because these guys from texas and OK were ruleing the arena but when they palyed that song ( i think thats the name of it) we sure felt better and when it was my turn to go out for my re-ride i didn't d any better but i sure felt great, felt like chris was there. Anyway, i face planted 'cause i tucked wrong and drove home with a bloody nose and a bloody tooth. chris probably alughed his head off at us.

great singer great song writer great bull and bronc rider

I'm doing this because this one song seems to be impossible to find, so I took the time to sit down and figure out the chord progression for it, not hard at all. Enjoy!
(hard to format stuff here but you get the idea)

INTRO:
G-C C G

G
I was the new kid on the circuit,

C

Gold buckles in my eyes,

D

But the horse i drew was plenty rank,

C--------------------G
In much to my surprise.

G

I did a double back flip,

C

And landed on my head,

D

This old cowboy limped out into the area,

C------------------G

Leaned over me and said.

CHORUS
C

You gotta cowboy up,

G

When you get throwed down,

D
Get right back in the saddle,

G
As soon as you hit the ground,

C
You've heard that the tough get going,

G--------------------C

When the going gets tough.

G

Well round here what we say is,

D--------------------G

Boy you better cowboy up.

G-C C G

By the end of my last season,

they said i was among the best.

So i proudly called the girl back home, 

Hoping she'd be impressed, 

But her mamma said that she
 married a guy that
I used to call my friend,

But before the first tear could fall,

These words came back again.

CHORUS

D
Well its not an easy lesson,
----C-----------------G

To learn in life and love,
A

But its the only way to go,
---D
Whenever you bite the dust.
