I Can Still Make Cheyenne Chords

C                           F
Her telephone rang 'bout a quarter to nine
C                           G                F
She heard his voice on the other end of the line
                       G
She wondered what was wrong this time
C                        F
She never knew what his calls might bring
        C                       G
With a cowboy like him it could be anything
         F                   G                       G     C  Gsus
And she always expected the worst in the back of her mind. 
C                                F
He said, "It's cold out here and I'm all alone,
C                            G                   F
I didn't make the short go again and I'm coming home.
                   G
I know I've been away too long.
C                       F
I never got a chance to write or call
C                               G
And I know this rodeo has been hard on us all
         F                 G                         C
But I'll be home soon and honey is there something wrong?"
 
[Chorus:]
F                        G
She said, "Don't bother comin' home.
        Am       G            F
By the time you get here I'll be long gone.
         C                   G
There's somebody new and he sure ain't no rodeo man."
F                         G
He said, "I'm sorry it's come down to this.
        Am        G            F
There's so much about you that I'm gonna miss.
          C                  G                         F
But it's alright baby, if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne.
      C                  G                      C        G
Gotta go now baby, if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne.
C                           F
He left that phone danglin' off the hook
C                             G                F
Then slowly turned around and gave it one last look
              G
Then he just walked away
C                              F
He aimed his truck toward that Wyoming line
       C                          G
With a little luck he could still get there in time
    F                 G                           C
And in that Cheyenne wind he could still hear her say.
 
[Chorus:]
F                        G
She said, "Don't bother comin' home.
        Am       G            F
By the time you get here I'll be long gone.
         C                   G
There's somebody new and he sure ain't no rodeo man."
F                         G
He said, "I'm sorry it's come down to this.
        Am        G            F
There's so much about you that I'm gonna miss.
          C                  G                         F
But it's alright baby, if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne.
      C                  G                      C        G
Gotta go now baby, if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne.
 
C                        F
She never knew what his calls might bring
        C                       G
With a cowboy like him it could be anything
         F                   G                       G     C
And she always expected the worst in the back of her mind.
