How A Cowgirl Says Goodbye

D                        G
A cup of coffee with the first sun light
A                    D
At a last chance Texaco
D                               Em
I'm thumbing through a worn out roadmap
A           Em                      D
Trying to decide which way to go
D                          Em
These empty miles that are       memories
 A                       D
They just seem to linger on
D                   Em
She left me on this lost highway
Em                A           D        C G D
Wondering why and        where she'd gone

[Chorus]
D                             Em
That's how a cowgirl breaks a young man's heart
A                                D
That's how my whole world slowly came apart
D                     Em
With a cold and empty stare
Em                  A
As if I wasn't even there
 A
She didn't even stop to cry
Em                            D    C G D
That's how a cowgirl says goodbye

[Verse]
 D                        Em
Called up her mom down in Abilene
A                         D
just to find out how she fared
D                               Em
She said she stopped a while in San Antone
Em         A                D
spent some time with an old friend
D                           Em
with all this distance in between us
A                          D
I'm sure I never cross her mind
D                         Em
And it may take all these roads ahead
A                      D    C G D
just to leave it all behind

[Chorus]
D                             Em
That's how a cowgirl breaks a young man's heart
A                                D
That's how my whole world slowly came apart
D                     Em
With a cold and empty stare
Em                  A
As if I wasn't even there
 A
She didn't even stop to cry
Em                            D    C G D
That's how a cowgirl says goodbye

[Outro]
  Em                                  D   C G D
I guess that's how a cowgirl says goodbye
