B                   E             B
I hear the sound of sorrow in the wind
        E                              B
Blowing down from every mile I've ever been
        E                                   B
Calling me out on some road that just won't end
                                     F#
Where the sweetheart rides the rodeo again
           B                 E                B
A thousand nights a thousand towns I took the bows
                                 F#
There is no compensation for me now
     B                E                  B
Out along the highway where the west was won
                     F#            B
No matter how fast I ride or far I run
        E                         B
Waiting for the sweetheart of the rodeo
                                       E
They're comin' down from Tonopah to Tupelo
                                F# B
She'll come to town to ride the radio
                                     F#
Like she's slidin' down the walls of Jericho
                                    B
There goes the sweetheart of the rodeo

SOLO

B                  E              B
I stepped into the light you left behind
        E                                      B
I stood there where all the world could see me shine
         E                            B
Oh I was on my way to you to make you mine
                       F#                B
But I took the longest road that I could find
        E                         B
Waiting for the sweetheart of the rodeo
                                       E
They're comin' down from Tonopah to Tupelo
                                F# B
She'll come to town to ride the radio
                                     F#
Like she's slidin' down the walls of Jericho
                                    B
There goes the sweetheart of the rodeo
