Am E Am E 
Am... 

 
Am 
It's been a long dark dirty road 
F                  C 
And pocket full of gold 
    E 
And I've been out here now 
Am 
All on my own 
Am 
Well it's real quiet here 
F              C 
Just the way I like it here 
        E 
There's no one to bother me 
          Am 
Except... 

Am       F           C 
In 1955, born into Wadena's pride 
E 
I laid my head on that 
Am 
Milligan creek bed 
Am 
When I was a young man 
F                    C 
I helped build these land 
E                            Am 
I laid down these rails as a CPR man 

Am 
Thought I'd live forever 
F                   C 
With my heart in my pocket 
       E 
Oh, my gun by my side 
       Am 
And my feelings in a locket 

Am                         F         C 
Well, that was a cold year in Seventyseven 
    E 
But I married my wife 
Am 
We had 2 kids 
Am 
I gave her a daughter 
F             C 
She gave me a son 
       E                      Am 
And we rode those damn horses until we had none 

Am 
Fists still like flyin' 
F                C 
Doing things for dyin' 
     E                            Am 
Oh I should have put that old gun away 

 
    F    G               Am 
But I, I am me, a broken cowboy 
    F       C             E 
And I don't feel right no more 
       F G           Am 
'Cause I am a broken cowboy 

Solo: Am F C E Am   (2x) 

 
Am 
Livin' life in the fast lane 
F               C 
Racing cars and robbing trains 
  E 
I thought I had it all 
Am 
Then one day I got the call 
Am 
A father's worst dream 
F           C        E 
My son went down and I 

Am 
The colours deceive me 
F        C 
As I see grey 
          E 
Oh you're cutting me down with those 
Am 
Cold words you're saying 
Am 
Then you called me brother 
F                 C             E 
But this can't be so 'cause you slander my name 
Am                          F E Am 
Anywhere the wind will blow 

 
F        G               Am 
But I, I am me, a broken cowboy 
    F       C             E 
And I don't feel right no more 
       F G           Am 
'Cause I am a broken cowboy 
    F G         Am 
Yes I am broken cowboy
