Tight Levis and Yellow Ribbons Chris LeDoux
[(2)]
I was [D]born and raised in the red clay hills of [A]Texas
In the land where the grass gets only beer can [D]tall
Thats where I learned to cuss and fight and [G]chew Brown Mule Tobacco
[Em]Fix windmills fore I was five years [A]old
[G]I rode every head of stock from the [D]Gulf to Kansas City
Runnin wild is all Ive ever [A]known
But this [G]cowboys got a weakness for Tight Le[D]vis and Yellow Ribbons
And theres s[G]omethin bout em I[A] cant leave al[D]one
***Chorus
Tight Le[G]vis and Yellow Ri[A]bbons make a [D]cowboy swim a river
That be[G]fore he jumps, he [A]knows is way too [D]wide
And theyll [G]make him throw a s[A]addle on a [D]bronc hes never seen
And [G]one he knows hell [A]never break to [D]ride
****************
I [D]met her at a rodeo in Douglas, Ari[A]zona
Id drawn the rankest horse a man could [D]draw
Well, I rode him tall and spurred him high
And [G]when I made the whistle
The [A]crowd went wild but she was all I saw
That [G]night we had a beer or two with [D]friends of mine from Dallas
She smiled and said she loved the Texas d[D]rawl
And I [G]felt like Roy Rogers did in [D]all those cowboy movies
Ã?Cuz[G] I became the[A] hero, got the[G] money,[A] girl and[D] all
***Chorus
Tight Le[G]vis and Yellow Ri[A]bbons make a [D]cowboy swim a river
That be[G]fore he jumps, he [A]knows is way too [D]wide
And theyll [G]make him throw a s[A]addle on a [D]bronc hes never seen
And [G]one he knows hell [A]never break to [D]ride
