Dear Rodeo
                                           D#
I'd be lying if I try to tell you I don't think
about you
                                              F
After all the miles and the wild nights that we've
been through
Lord knows we've had a few

Dear Rodeo
I'd like to say that I took the reins and rode away
No regrets, no left-unsaids, just turn the page
Oh, but you know better, babe

Chorus:
            D#
'tween them almost had-'ems and broken bones
     Cm
The dream of a buckle I'll never put on
     A#
I'm jaded, whoa, I hate it
        D#
But somehow the highs outweigh the lows
        Cm                           F
And I'd do it all again even though we both know
F
I'd still have to let you go

So dear Rodeo
I tried like hell to tell myself it was
all your fault
I held on tight with all my might,
I just couldn't hang on
And that's hard to hang your hat on

Chorus:
'Tween them almost-had-’ems and the broken bones
The dream of a buckle I’ll never put on
I'm jaded, whoa, I hate it
But somehow the highs outweigh the lows
And I’d do it all again even though we both know
I'd still have to let you go

Dear Rodeo
I'd like to think you miss me too,
but I know you don't
Oh, but that don’t change the past and
that don't change the truth
I'm still in love with you
Dear Rodeo
