[Versetto]Am EmWell I was sitting in a coffee shopG Amjust having a cup to pass the timeAm Em G Amswapping rodeo stories with this old cowboy friend of mine.Am C DmWhen some motorcycle riders started snickering in the backAm Em Amstarted poking fun at my friend's hat.[Versetto]Am Em G AmOne old boy said "hey Tex, where'd you park your horse"Am Em G AmMy friend just pulled his hat down low, but they couldn't be ignored.Am C DmOne husky fella said "I think I'll rip that hat right off your head".Am Em AmThat's when my friend turned around, and this is what he said...[Ritornello]Am C DmYou'll ride a black tornado across a western sky.Am C EmRope an old blue northern and milk it 'till it's dry.Am C DmBulldog the Mississippi, pin its ears down flatAm Em AmLong before you take this cowboy's hat.[Versetto]Am Em G AmNow partner, this old hat's better left alone.Am Em G AmYou see, it used to be my daddy's, but last year he passed on.Am C DmMy nephew skinned the rattler that makes up this old hat band.Am Em AmBut back in '69, he died in Vietnam.[Versetto]Am Em G AmNow the eagle feather was given to me by an Indian friend of mine.Am Em G AmSomeone ran him down somewhere around that Arizona line.Am C DmAnd a real special lady give me this hat pin,Am Em AmAnd I don't know if I'll ever see her again.[Ritornello]Am C DmYou'll ride a black tornado across a western sky.Am C EmRope an old blue norther and milk it 'till it's dry.Am C DmBulldog the Mississippi, pin its ears down flatAm Em AmLong before you take this cowboy's hat.[Versetto]Am Em G AmNow if your leather jacket means to you what this hat means to me,Am Em G Amthen I guess we understand each other, and we'll just let it be.Am C DmBut if you still think it's funny, Man, you got my back up against the wall,Am Em AmAnd if you touch my hat, you're gonna have to fight us all.[Versetto]Am Em G AmWell right then I caught a little sadness in that gang leader's eyes.Am Em G AmHe turned back to the others and they all just kind of shuffled on outside.Am C DmBut when my friend turned back towards me I noticed his old hat brimAm Em AmWell it was turned up in a big old Texas grin![Ritornello]Am C DmYou'll ride a black tornado across a western sky.Am C EmRope an old blue norther and milk it 'till it's dry.Am C DmBulldog the Mississippi, pin its ears down flatAm Em AmLong before you take this cowboy's hat.
