You Say You're A Real Cowboy
Recorded by Billy Crash Craddock
Written by David Heavener

C         G7           C
You got a nerve coming into this barroom 
F                       C
Saying you're one of my kind
                 G7           C
You say you're a cowboy cause you've been to Texas 
        D7                    G7
And you met Willie Nelson one time

    C                   G7
The clothes that you're wearing 
      C          G7     C                F
Don't make you a cowboy any fool can see that
                                 C
Cause a cowboy is more than just boots 
                 G7                   C
And belt buckles Levi's and 10-gallon hats

       F
A real cowboy is one of a kind 
                                            C
He's the kind that don't like to hurt or be hurt
   G7
He does his own thing he don't bother nobody 
                       C
Unless they bother him first

    F
The ladies who love him put nothing above him 
                        C
Except the moon and the stars
       G7
A real cowboy don't care how he fills out his jeans 
                                  C
He just cares how he feels in his heart

                 G7     C
If you're a real cowboy then I'm Hank Williams 
     F                      C
This here is a glass of champagne
                   G7       C
And this dingy ol' bar room well it's seen its past 
    D7                    G7
And Texas is somewhere in Spain

  C                                       G7
A cowboy ain't something you learn how to be 
     C                         F
It's something you're given at birth
                             C
If the good Lord intended us all to be cowboys 
     G7                    C
We'd all been born in Fort Worth

repeat #3,4

       G7
A real cowboy don't care how he fills out his jeans 
                                  C
He just cares how he feels in his heart
