Her Daddy gave her her first pony 
     G

            C 
She climbed high in that saddle 
             G 
Fell I don't know how many times 
                   Em                   D 
He taught her a lesson that she learned 
C                  D

It's gonna hurt every now and then

She wanted a house, a home and babies 
           G 
He started coming home late at night 
           Em             D 
She didn't let him see it break her heart 
           C               D 
She didn't let him see her fall apart

Phone rang early one morning 
            G 
Her momma's voice, she'd been crying 
               C 
Said it's your daddy, you need to come home 
        G 
This is it, I think he's dying 
             Em                D 
She laid the phone down by his head 
    C                  D 
The last words that he said
[Refrão]
              G 
Cowgirls don't cry 
            D 
Ride, baby, ride 
           G 
Lessons in life show us all in time 
    D 
Too soon God lets you know why 
       Bm                  A 
If you fall get right back on

Cowgirls don't cry
