Verse 1:
Riff 1
I told you `bout living in the U.S. of A.
Riff 1
Don`t you know that I`m a gangster of love
Riff 1
Let me tell you people that I found a new way
Riff 1
And I`m tired of all this talk about love
Riff 1
And the same old story with a new set of words
Riff 1
About the good and the bad and the poor
Riff 1
And the times keep on changin`
Riff 1
So I`m keepin` on top
Riff 1
Of every fat cat who walks through my door
CHORUS:
I`m a space cowboy
Bet you weren`t ready for that
I`m a space cowboy
I`m sure you know where it`s at
Riff 1 Riff 2 Chord 1
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Verse 2:
I was born on this rock
And I`ve been travelin` through space
Since the moment I first realized
What all you fast talkin` cats would do if you could
You know, I`m ready for the final surprise
There ain`t no way around it
Ain`t nothing to say
That`s gonna satisfy my soul deep inside
All the prayers and surveyors
Keep the whole place uptight
While it keeps on gettin` darker outside
CHORUS
Verse 3:
I see the show downs, slow downs, lost and found, turn arounds
The boys in the military shirts
I keep my eyes on the prize, on the long fallen skies
And I don`t let my friends get hurt
All you back room schemers, small trip dreamers
Better find something new to say
Cause you`re the same old story
It`s the same old crime
And you got some heavy dues to pay
CHORUS
