[Verse 1]
There were daisies in a coffee can sittin' by my bed when I woke up
"I love you" written on a note beside my favorite cup
His boots weren't in the kitchen and his old hat was missin' from the door
I sank down in that empty chair, I've been here so many times before
[Chorus]
Ain't it just like a cowboy
To see inside your heart
Say all those pretty things
Start pulling all your strings
'Til you're tangled in the dark
He'll ride up on his white horse
Like he's there to save the day
Ain't it just like a cowboy
To ride away
[Verse 2]
He's probably gone to Tuscan or Abilene or somewhere in between
There's somethin' in those motel rooms he just can't find with me
Here's the part where drinkin' is easier than thinkin' about what he's doing tonight
He's holding her like he held me, God I should know better than to cry
[Chorus]
Ain't it just like a cowboy
To see inside your heart
Say all those pretty things
Start pulling all your strings
'Til you're tangled in the dark
He'll ride up on his white horse
Like he's there to save the day
Ain't it just like a cowboy
To ride away
Ain't it just like a cowboy
Ain't it just like a cowboy
