Rhinestone Cowboy

C F  2x

          C                     F  C
I've been walkin' these streets so long
                 F   C
Singin' the same old song
                            F     C            G
I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway
      F                    Fsus4 F
Where hustle's the name of the   game
                  Fsus4   F                         C    C  F \ C
And nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain
               G
There's been a load of compromisin'
       F             C
On the road to my horizon
    F                      D7         F          G
But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me

       F    G     C      F \ C
Like a rhinestone cowboy
                           Cmaj7         F   G
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
       F    G     C      F \ C
Like a rhinestone cowboy
                               Cmaj7          F    G
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
                  F        C
And offers comin' over the phone

Well, I really don't mind the rain
                         F   C
And a smile can hide all the pain
                                   F   C                       G
But you're down when you're ridin' the train that's takin' the long way
      F                   Fsus4 F
And I dream of the things I'll  do
                                                  C    C  F \ C
With a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe
             G
There's be a load of compromisin'
       F             C
On the road to my horizon
    F                      D7         F          G
