Death of a Cowboy

Started as a picture on my dashboard

Never pictured what it'd turn into

I'd never given up

But I guess I'm giving up because of you

Something in me says I'm starting over

Something in me saying I ain't through

Once a mustang on the run

Tryna beat that setting sun

The highway calls for some but not for me

Once a bullet in a barrel

Straying from that straight and narrow

Now a whisper in the wind, boy, let it be

It's a heartbeat, it's a breath

It's a new life and the death of a cowboy

Now that I know I got you home waiting

Honey, how am I supposed to ride away?

I found my missing piece

So there ain't nothing left for me to chase

You're my resting place

Once a mustang on the run

Tryna beat that setting sun

The highway calls for some but not for me

Once a bullet in a barrel

Straying from that straight and narrow

Now a whisper in the wind, boy, let it be

It's a heartbeat, it's a breath

It's a new life and the death of a cowboy

It's a heartbeat, it's a breath

It's a new life and the death

Once a mustang on the run

Tryna beat that setting sun

The highway calls for some but not for me

Once a bullet in a barrel

Straying from that straight and narrow

Now a whisper in the wind, boy, let it be

It's a heartbeat, it's a breath

It's a new life and the death of a cowboy
