D A6 Bm
Always alone,
G G/F# A7
never with a herd
D A6 Bm
Prettiest mare I've ever seen,
G G/F# A7
you'll have to take my word
G G/F# Em A7 D A6 Bm
I'm going to catch that horse if I can
G G/F# Em A7 D A6 Bm
and when I do I'll give her my brand
D A6 Bm
Well I was up on Stony Ridge
G G/F# Em A7
after this chestnut mare, been chasing her for weeks
D A6 Bm
Oh I'd catch a glimpse of her every once in a while
G G/F# Em A7(A7(4) D
taking her meal, bathing, fine lady
A6 Bm
This one day I happen to be real close to her
G G/F# Em
and I saw her standing over there
A7 D A6 Bm
so I snuck up on her nice and easy
G G/F#
got my rope out
Em A7
and I flung it in the air!
(chorus)
G G/F# Em A7 D A6 Bm
I'm going to catch that horse if I can
G G/F# Em A7 D A6 Bm
and when I do I'll give her my brand
G G/F# Em
And we'll be friends for life
G G/F# Em
She'll be just like a wife
G G/F# Em A7 D A6 Bm
I'm going to catch that horse if I can
And I got her and I'm pulling on her
D A B C C/Bbass Em
Above the hills, higher than eagles were gliding
Eb F# G D
suspended in the sky
D
over the hill
C C/B Em
straight for the sun we were riding
G G/F#
my eyes were filled with light
D
behind those black walls
A B C C/B Em
below was a bottomless canyon
G D
floating with no sound
D
ghosts far below
C C/B Em
seemed to be suddenly rising
G G/F#
exploding all around
(chorus)
