Ride on    (video)    (intro)    (midi)    (sample)

 

    Am - F - G - Am (2x)

 

     Am                                          - F

1. True you ride the finest horse       I have ever seen

       G                                         Am

    standing 16' one or two, with eyes wild and green.

Am                                            F

    You ride the horse so well, hands light to the touch

   G                                                                  Am

    I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to.

 

 Am         - F                   

Ride on,        see you,

G                                                                   Am

 I could never go with you, no matter how I wanted to.

 Am         - F

Ride on,        see you,

G                                                                   Am

 I could never go with you, no matter how I wanted to.

 

       Am                                             F

2. When you ride into the night, without a trace behind,

G                                              - Am

    run you claw along my gut,            one last time.

       Am                                         - F

    I turn to face the empty space,        where you used to lie,

            G                     

    and look for the spark that lights the night

                        Am

    through the teardrop in your eye.

 

+ CHORUS

 

+ Am - F - G - Am (4x)
