G He wanted someone who loves the land as much as he does D Someone who knows the blessings of a good hard rain Em Somebody simple and strong that he knows he can count on C Soft as the wind yet bold enough to bless his name
G That's why God loves cowboys I believe there's a place in his heart D Cause when the hurt needs tending and fences need mending Em He knows they'll work hard C On his great big ranch called life cause they love and take care G Of all his creations from the horses they ride D To those broken hearted honky tonk angels Em C Oooh oooh that's why God loves cowboys G He knew they'd need room to breathe and freedom D So he gave ‘em Texas and those big Montana skies Em He was there when he heard those prayers comin' from Cheyenne C Right beside that young man on his last ride G That's why God loves cowboys I believe there's a place in his heart D Cause when the hurt needs tending and fences need mending Em He knows they'll work hard C On his great big ranch called life cause they love and take care G Of all his creations from the horses they ride D To those broken hearted honky tonk angels Em C Oooh oooh that's why God loves cowboys
G Oooh those cold nights get lonely D He needs more than just a good fire to keep him warm Em Oooh there's nothing more holy C Than the love of a woman to weather life's storm G That's why God loves cowgirls, I believe there's a place in his heart D Cause when the herd needs tending and the fences needs mending Em He knows they'll work hard, on his great big ranch called life C Cause they love and take care of all its creations G From the horses they ride to those broken hearted honky tonk heros D Ooooooh Em That's why God loves cowgirls C Ooooooh That's why God loves cowboys
