I first heard this song on Chris' showcase on CMT, I know it is on one of his
older albums, but I am not sure which. I noticed that it wasn't in the
archive, so I decided to contribute it because it is a really fun song. So
here goes:
Rodeo Rose
by Chris Ledoux (transcribed by Drew Champagne)
Verse 1:
D A
When I first saw you I din't think you were too pretty.
A D
Kinda Dumb looking and tell you the truth really ugly.
D G
But, I wanted and needed what you had to offer.
D A D
So I swallowed my pride and together, we hit the road.
Chorus 1:
G D
Rodeo Rose I'm mighty glad that you're mine.
A D
You're the best thing this cowboy ever could find.
G D
You've been with me mile after mile, and never complained.
A
And the way that I treated you, I never thought
G A D
you could ever stand the strain.
Verse 2:
D A
The weeks and the months we have known have turned into years.
A D
And you have stuck by me through all the hard times and the tears.
D G
And I know you can't hear me because you don't have any ears!
D A D
Oh, but that doesn't matter at all, I still love you so.
Chorus 2:
G D
Rodeo Rose, I'm mighty glad that you're mine.
A D
You're the best thing this cowboy ever could find.
G D
You've been with me mile after mile and never complained
A
And it wouldn't surprise me if you're the first truck [stop]
G A D
in the cowboy hall of fame.
