[INTRO]
G Cm F .
[VERSE ONE]
B#m Cm G Hangs his hat upon a tree
F G Bows his head, bends his knee
F B#m G Cm Only asks for what he needs, and Jesus listens
B#m Cm G A little bread for today
F G A little water, little shade
F B#m Cm To forgive just as he has been forgiven
[CHORUS]
G When a cowboy prays
F G It starts raining in Oklahoma
F G Long lost sons come home to momma
B#m Cm And those stubborn horses break
G When a cowboy prays
F G It's a whisper and a rumble
F G/Bm And it's as strong as it is humble
B#m Cm This old world just ain't the same
G F When a cowboy prays
[VERSE TWO]
B#m Cm G F G Folds his calloused hands together 'round a Bible bound in leather
F Cm B#m Cm Just as worn and just as weathered as the lines upon his face
B#m Cm G F G All the horses in the stablе, all his family around the table
F Cm B#m Cm All of Heavеn listens in to every word he has to say
[CHORUS]
G When a cowboy prays
F G It starts raining in Oklahoma
F G Long lost sons come home to momma
B#m Cm And those stubborn horses break
G When a cowboy prays
F G It's a whisper and a rumble
F G/Bm And it's as strong as it is humble
B#m Cm This old world just ain't the same
G F When a cowboy prays
When a cowboy prays
[BRIDGE]
When a cowboy prays, it's for the grit and grace to get back up again
When a cowboy prays, it starts with thanks and ends in Jesus' Name, Amen
[PRE CHORUS]
When a cowboy prays, all of Heaven listens
When a cowboy prays, you don't wanna miss it
[CHORUS]
G When a cowboy prays
F G It starts raining in Oklahoma
F G Long lost sons come home to momma
B#m Cm And those stubborn horses break
G When a cowboy prays
F G It's a whisper and a rumble
F G/Bm And it's as strong as it is humble
B#m Cm This old world just ain't the same
G F When a cowboy prays
When a cowboy prays
