          Let The Cowboy Dance

   E                                      B7
1.  He ain't been right, since she's been gone
                           E
He's been known to tie one on
                                   B7
Glass could break and chairs could fly
                      E
We best keep him occupied

chorus:
                E                        B7
Let the cowboy dance, let him dance all night
                                     E
Maybe he won't fuss, maybe he won't fight
                                   B7
It's our only hope, it's our only chance
                                          E
Clear the floor boys, and let the cowboy dance

   E                                                   B7 
2.  Let him kick up his heels, or he'll kick down the doors
                                         E 
Give him lots of room, when he hits the floor
                               B7
If he asks to dance with your wife
                               E
Let her go boys, and save your life

Repeat chorus

Instrumental break

(Change to key of F)

          F                 C7
3.  Music calms the savage beast
                                 F
He's a big old boy, at the very least
                       C7
He'll get over her someday
                           F
Until then, stay outta his way

Repeat chorus (in F)
                C7                             F
(Tag) Clear the floor boys, and let the cowboy dance
