Dear Rodeo (Live)

[Verse 1]

Dear Rodeo

I'd be lying if I tried to tell you I don't think about you

After all the miles and the wild nights that we've been through

Lord knows we had a few

[Verse 2]

Dear Rodeo

I'd like to say that I took the reins and rode away

No regrets, no left-unsaids, just turn the page

Oh, but you know better, babe

[Chorus]

'Tween them almost-had-'ems and em' broken bones

The dream of a buckle I'll never put on

I'm jaded, whoa, I hate it

But somehow the highs outweigh the lows

And I'd do it all again even though we both know

I'd still have to let you go

[Verse 3]

So dear Rodeo (Hey)

I tried like hell to tell myself it was all your fault

I held on tight with all my might, I just couldn't hang on

And that's hard to hang your hat on

[Chorus]

'Tween them almost-had-'ems and the broken bones

The dream of a buckle I'll never put on

I'm jaded, whoa, I hate it

But somehow the highs outweigh the lows

And I'd do it all again even though we both know

I'd still have to let you go

[Verse 4]

So dear Rodeo

I'd like to think you miss me too, but I know you don't

Oh, but that don't change the past and that don't change the truth

That I'm still in love with you

Dear Rodeo

[Outro]

Long live cowboys, long live country music

God bless you, God bless America

Thank you so much for being here tonight
