VERSE 1
G G/F# Em Em7
I like your twisted point of view, Mike
C C/B Am7 D
I like your questioning eyebrows
G G/F# Em Em7
You've made it pretty clear what you like
C C/B Am7 D
It's only fair to tell you now
VERSE 2
Em Em7 C C/B
that I leave early in the morning
Am7 D Dsus D
and I won't be back till next year
Em Em7 C C/B
I see that kiss-me pucker forming
Am7 D Dsus D
but maybe you should plug it with a beer, cause
CHORUS
G G/F# Em Em7
Papa was a rodeo - Mama was a rock'n'roll band
G G/F# C D
I could play guitar and rope a steer before I learned to stand
G G/F# C G
Home was anywhere with diesel gas - Love was a trucker's hand
G G/F# C C/B
Never stuck around long enough for a one night stand
Am7 G
Before you kiss me you should know
C D G
Papa was a rodeo
BRIDGE
G)| G/F# | Em | Em7 | C | D - Dsus - D |
VERSE 1
The light reflecting off the mirror ball
looks like a thousand swirling eyes
They make me think I shouldn't be here at all
You know, every minute someone dies
VERSE2
What are we doing in this dive bar
How can you live in a place like this
Why don't you just get into my car
and I'll take you away I'll take that kiss now, but
CHORUS
BRIDGE (2x)
VERSE 2
And now it's 55 years later
We've had the romance of the century
After all these years wrestling gators
I still feel like crying when I think of what you said to me
CHORUS
C D G G/F#
…Papa was a rodeo
OUTRO
Em7 D C D G
What a coincidence, your Papa was a rodeo too.
