 As he climbed  in the chute, the crowd  held it's breath:
 He was seconds  from glory  or moments  from death.
 They knew  with this bull, it could go  either way.
 He said: "Let  her go boys,  an' pray."
 He hung  on for eight but he couldn't  get loose:
 That's when a clown  they call Crazy  came to  his rescue.
 When the dust  finally settled, they both  walked away.
 Yeah, they became  best of friends  that day.
 (CHORUS)
 The cowboy  an' clown,  close  as two brothers.
 Chips  up or down,  they could count  on each other.
 Buckles  an' beers,  winnin'  an' losin':
 Laughter  an' tears,  broken  hearts an' bruises
 They lived  for the next final round:
 The cowboy an' clown.
 From Denver  to Dallas, to the Calgary  Stampede:
 They took  all those towns,  an' a few  in between.
 But it ended  one night, in a West  Texas town:
 The bulls either  got faster,  or ol' Crazy  slowed down.
 (BRIDGE)
Five  hundred pick-ups, lights on,  drivin' slow.
 A tent  on the hill  at the end  of the road.
When  the last Bible closed, one cowboy  stayed.
 He said: "Let  her go boys,  and pray."
 (CHORUS)
 The cowboy  an' clown,  close  as two brothers.
 Chips  up or down,  they could count  on each other.
 Buckles  an' beers,  winnin'  an' losin':
Laughter  an' tears,  broken  hearts an' bruises.
 They lived  for the next final round:
 The cowboy an' clown.

[G] , [C], [G], [C], [D2].[C] (SLIDE FROM [C] TO [D2] TO [C])

As he cli[G]mbed in the chute, the c[C]rowd held it's br[G]eath:

He was se[C]conds from g[C/B]lory or mo[Am]ments from de[D]ath.

They k[G]new with this bull, it could g[C]o either w[G]ay.

He said: "L[C]et her go b[C/B]oys, an' p[D]ray."

He h[G]ung on for eight but he c[C]ouldn't get l[G]oose:

That's when a cl[C]own they call C[C/B]razy came [Am]to his re[D]scue.

When the d[D]ust finally settled, they b[C]oth walked a[G]way.

Yeah, they be[C]came best of fr[C/B]iends that d[D]ay.

(CHORUS)

The co[G]wboy an' c[D/F#]lown, cl[Em]ose as two br[D]others.

Ch[C]ips up or d[C/B]own, they could c[Am]ount on each o[D]ther.

Bu[G]ckles an' b[D/F#]eers, wi[Em]nnin' an' l[D]osin':

Lau[C]ghter an' te[C/B]ars, b[Am]roken hearts an' b[D]ruises

They li[Am]ved for the next final r[D]ound:

The cowboy an' cl[G]own. [C]    [D2]        [C]

From De[G]nver to Dallas, to the Ca[C]lgary Sta[G]mpede:

They t[C]ook all those t[C/B]owns, an' a [Am]few in be[D]tween.

But it en[G]ded one night, in a W[C]est Texas t[G]own:

The bulls ei[C]ther got f[C/B]aster, or ol' Cr[Am]azy slowed d[D]own.

(BRIDGE)
[A]Five hundred pick-ups, lights [D]on, drivin' s[A]low.

A t[D]ent on the h[A/C#]ill at the e[Bm]nd of the r[E]oad.

[A]When the last Bible closed, one c[D]owboy st[A]ayed.

He said: "L[D]et her go [A/C#]boys, and pr[E]ay."

(CHORUS)
The c[A]owboy an' c[A/Ab]lown, cl[A/F#]ose as two br[E]others.

C[D]hips up or d[A/C#]own, they could c[Bm]ount on each o[E]ther.

Bu[A]ckles an' [A/Ab]beers, w[A/F#]innin' an' lo[E]sin':

[D]Laughter an' [A/C#]tears, br[Bm]oken hearts an' b[E]ruises.

They li[Bm]ved for the next final r[E]ound:

The cowboy an' cl[A]own.
