Her telephone rang 'bout a quarter to nine
C G F
She heard his voice on the other end of the line
G
She wondered what was wrong this time
C F
She never knew what his calls might bring
C G
With a cowboy like him it could be anything
F G G C Gsus
And she always expected the worst in the back of her mind.
C F
He said, "It's cold out here and I'm all alone,
C G F
I didn't make the short go again and I'm coming home.
G
I know I've been away too long.
C F
I never got a chance to write or call
C G
And I know this rodeo has been hard on us all
F G C
But I'll be home soon and honey is there something wrong?"
[Chorus:]
F G
She said, "Don't bother comin' home.
Am G F
By the time you get here I'll be long gone.
C G
There's somebody new and he sure ain't no rodeo man."
F G
He said, "I'm sorry it's come down to this.
Am G F
There's so much about you that I'm gonna miss.
C G F
But it's alright baby, if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne.
C G C G
Gotta go now baby, if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne.

C F
He left that phone danglin' off the hook
C G F
Then slowly turned around and gave it one last look
G
Then he just walked away
C F
He aimed his truck toward that Wyoming line
C G
With a little luck he could still get there in time
F G C
And in that Cheyenne wind he could still hear her say.
[Chorus:]
