Sweetheart Of The Rodeo

[Verse]
       D
Well rumor has it so they say
          G
She was broke down on the highway
           D
She was checkin' it out
                        A
She was underneath the hood
           D                       
When up rolled some country boys up
         G
 to no good and makin' noise
     D            A               
To help the lady out like a good 
         D
ole boy should
     D
The two came up on each side and 
said
      G
Hey honey you want a ride
      D                            
One winked and the other gave her a
          A
 little pinch
     D                            
And so the story goes she hauled off
G
 and broke his nose
            D              A      
With her daddy's diamond horseshoe
          D
 monkey wrench

[Chorus]
          G             D 
She's a high-stakin', heart 
             A            D
breakin', absolutely breath- takin'
  G          D              A    
Make no mistakin', she's mighty 
                        G      D  
hard of holdin', many cowboys 
            A
tried, many a cowboy dang near died
            G      A            D
She's no sweet - heart of the rodeo

[Verse 2]
D                              
Well pretty girls these days get 
               G
straight on top in so many ways
           D                       
Things in show biz and those 
       A
glamour magazines
               D                 
Nah she's not one to befriend the 
         G
latest so called fashion trend
             D            A    
She just naturally looks fine in 
          D
those tight blue jeans

[Chorus]
          G             D 
She's a high-stakin', heart 
             A            D
breakin', absolutely breath- takin'
  G          D              A    
Make no mistakin', she's mighty 
                        G      D  
hard of holdin', many cowboys 
            A
tried, many a cowboy dang near died
            G      A            D
She's no sweet - heart of the rodeo

               G                D
No she's no sweetheart of the rodeo
                 A                D
Boys you been warned so now you know
              G               D
So straighten up and act your age
                           A       
You'll be lookin' down the barrel

                A        D
breakin', absolutely breath- takin'
  G          D              A    
Make no mistakin', she's mighty 
                        G      D  
hard of holdin', many cowboys 
            A
tried, many a cowboy dang near died
            G      A            D
