Midnight Sun Tab

by Garth Brooks


Cold Start(Verse 1):

(ring out)                        
    Ain't no hay left on the ground

Gonna join the sun in sitting down
                            
My last bale and well my tail is dragging
           
Cotton shirt, Cotton mouth
 
Cold ones waiting at the house
                           
It's time for me to get down off the wagon

Chorus 1:
(ring out)                    *walkup
   Hose me down and dress me up

Fire up that old pickup truck
                                
Out the gate and let them horses run
 
A jukebox and swinging doors

Soft and pretties on a hardwood floor
                                
A cowboy's work just ain't never done
                          
In the land of the midnight sun

,,        

Verse 2:

Find a looker, have her hold my keys
    
And tell her later we'll be needing these

Grab a cold one, turn it upside down
                     
To that honky tonkin' sound

Chorus 2:
(ring out)                    *walkup
   Hose me down and dress me up

Fire up that old pickup truck
                                
Out the gate and let them horses run
              
'Cause eight o' clock comes twice a day
 
And either way you'll find me chasing strays
                                
A cowboy's work just ain't never done
                       
In the land of the midnight sun

,,        

Verse 3:

Shoot the breeze while shooting pool

Dance 'til you're sweating like a rented mule

Getting loud with all my cowboy friends
               
The party never ends

Chorus 3:
(ring out)                    *walkup
   Hose me down and dress me up

Fire up that old pickup truck
                                
Out the gate and let them horses run

Looky there who waits for me

Smiling sweetly, holding up my keys
                                
A cowboy's work just ain't never done
                      
In the land of the midnight sun
                              
In the land of the midnight sun

End on G
