I 
G
knew the stakes were high right from the 
C
start

D
When she dealt the cards I dealt my 
G
heart 
D

Now 
G
I just found a game that I can't 
C
play

And 
D
this is where the cowboy rides a
G
way 
D

	And my 
G
heart is sinking like the setting 
C
sun

	
D
Setting on the things I wish I'd 
G
done 
D

	It's 
G
time to say goodbye to yester
C
day

We've been 
G
in and out of love and in bet

And 
D
now we play the final showdown 
G
scene

And as the 
G
credits roll a sad song starts to 
C
play

This is where the cowboy rides a
