None of them
My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys
Recorded by Waylon Jennings (Circa 1996)

Key of D, with no capo to play along with the youtube video.
In 3/4 time
Note; a GREAT pub/campfire song!
D
I grew up dreaming of being a cowboy
G D
Loving the cowboy ways
Pursuing the life of my high riding heroes
E7 A7
I burned up my childhood days
D
I learned all the rules of the modern day drifter
G D
Don't you hold onto nothing too long
G D
Just take what you need from the ladies
G D A7 D
Then leave them the words of a sad country song
G D
My heroes have always been cowboys
E7 A7
And they still are it seems
G D G
Sadly in search of but one step in back of
D A7 D
Themselves and their slow moving dreams
Cowboys are special with their own brand of misery
G D
From being alone too long
G D
You could die from the cold in the arms of a nightmare
E7 A7
Knowing well your best days are gone
D
Picking up hookers instead of my pen
G D
I let the words of my years fade away
G D
Old worn out saddles old worn out
G D A7 D
Memories with no one and no place to stay
G D
My heroes have always been cowboys
E7 A7
And they still are it seems
G D G
Sadly in search of but one step in back of
D A7 D
Themselves and their slow moving dreams----
