George Strait - The Cowboy Rides Away (Live From The Astrodome)

"The last goodbye's the hardest one to say, this is where the cowboy rides away." Pretty soon George will be singing that one for the last time... but back in 2002 we still had another good 12 years left. Since we can't all go back, we might as well remember when.

I knew the stakes were high right from the start

When she dealt the cards I dealt my heart

Now I just found a game that I can't play

And this is where the cowboy rides away

And my heart is sinking like the setting sun

Setting on the things I wish I'd done

It's time to say good bye to yesterday

And this is where the cowboy rides away

We've been in and out of love and in between

And now we play the final showdown scene

And as the credits role a sad song starts to play

And this is where the cowboy rides away

And my heart is sinking like the setting sun

Setting on the things I wish I'd done

Oh the last good bye's the hardest one to say

And this is where the cowboy rides away

Oh the last good bye's the hardest one to say

And this is where the cowboy rides away
