How Bout Them Cowgirls Acoustic Tab

by George Strait


So this is my first chords, let me know what you guys think, I would love some
 feedback if you guys are having success with this.  The strumming pattern is 
simple once you get it down: xoxx oxxx, where an "x" is a strum and an "o" is a
 skip.  Do this twice with each new chord change in the verses, and do it once for
 each chord in the chorus starting with the "Fadd9" on "Sure are some proud 
girls."  As soon as the last "cowgirls" is sang in the chorus go immediately back
 to the strum pattern twice for each Chord.  When you get to the Bridge, one down
 strum suffices for each chord, then right back into the chorus.  Also you start
 singing on the first "Fadd9" chord is slightly different from the 
regular "Fadd9".  It should look like this:  ---  
                                             -1-
                                             -2-
                                             -3-
                                             -3-
                                             -x-
High "e" string is open, the low "E" string is not played.  Hope that's clear.
Good luck, happy playing!
Capo 4
Intro:        
                                  
I felt the rush of the Rio Grande into Yellowstone
                         
And I've seen first-hand Niagra Falls

And the lights of Vegas
                                       
I've criss-crossed down to Key Biscayane
                       
And Chi-town via Bangor, Maine

Think I've seen it all

And all I can say is

Chorus:
              
How 'bout them cowgirls

Boys ain't they somthin'
                
Sure are some proud girls
                  
And you can't tell 'em nothin'
                        
And I tell you right now girls
                                                
May just be seven wonders of this big, old round world
Let "" Ring                  
But how 'bout them cowgirls
         

Verse 2

She's ridin' colts in Steamboat Springs

Bailing hay outside Abilene

She's tryin' hard

To fit in in some city

But her home is 'neath that big, blue sky
                                            
And the Northern Plains and those other wide open spaces

Now days there ain't as many


Chorus

              
How 'bout them cowgirls

Boys ain't they somthin'
               
Sure are some proud girls
                  
And you can't tell 'em nothin'
                        
And I tell you right now girls
                                                
May just be seven wonders of this big, old round world
Let "" Ring       
But how 'bout them cowgirls


                           
Boy, she don't need you and she don't need me
                       
She can do just fine on her own two feet
                                        
But she wants a man who wants her to be herself
                               
And she'll never change, don't know how to hide
                    
Her stubborn will or her fightin' side
                                              
But you treat her right and she'll love you like no one else

Chorus
                    
Yeah, how 'bout them cowgirls

Boys ain't they somethin'
               
Sure are some proud girls
                    
But you can't beat their lovin'
                           
And I'll tell you right now girls
                                                  
May just be seven wonders of this big, old round world
Let "" Ring                                  
But how 'bout them cowgirls

How 'bout 'em boys
