Rock Roll Cowboys Tab

by The Cooper Brothers



It was the mid-late 70's and a group of gentlemen from Ottawa decided they'd show the 
how much better Canadian country rock is. The tune went a little something like this:

ROCK & ROLL COWBOYS

INTRO CHORDS  - / - 

VERSE 1


                             
Saw you coming into town just yesterday
                                           
It looked like you had a posse or two upon your heels

A seedy crew

I'm telling you
                                                  
Wouldn't want to meet yous on some darkened street no..no..
                               
I've heard all about the likes of you
(Yeah you look like...)

CHORUS
                      
Outlaws waiting for the stage
                       
Desperadoes from another age
                                                 
->
So lock up your daughters and hide your silver away
                                          
Those rock and roll cowboys are on the road again

VERSE 2
                                  
Drifting round the country like you had no home
                                     
Every night a party or two before you turn in

A sorry crew

I'm telling you
                               
Wonder where you'll be in a few years from now
                              
Wonder what the ladies see in you
                     
Say ain't I seen your faces before
                       
On some booking agent's wall
                                           
Staring out so spaced from a glossy eight-by-ten
                        
Or maybe on a late night duster
             
Or on some tv show
                                                
But hey I know somewhere I've seen you crazed old men
(Yeah you look like...)

REPEAT CHORUS X4

Thanks Guys!
