[Intro]
D    G          x4

[Verse 1]
G
Well it's time to
      D      G
move along I guess
             D              G
Everything I love I leave behind
              D         G
Standing in a field out West
                D
One thing on my heart
          G
one on my mind
    D                    G
She rolls like the thunder
flys like the wind
    D               G
Out where the river don't end
    D                   G
I burned all the bridges
left them alive
D                 G
Ain't coming back again

[Chorus]
              G    D
This cowboy's all alone
        A
Ridin' down that old two lane
            G         D
The whiskey goes down slow
               A
So close your eyes and grab the reins
         Bm
All the miles and the tears
        A
Through the long hard years
       G                      D
Like a dust storm I'm heading North
                Em
I spent my life chasin'
  A          D     G
A wild, wild horse
D    G

[Verse 2]
G               D        G
Was born into a lifelong curse
                   D
She whispers in my ear
           G
late every night
                   D         G
The liquor doesn't quench my thirst
                    D
It doesn't change a thing
           G
how hard I fight
      D                 G
She's cold as the Winter
out on the plains
     D                G
Like footsteps on frozen ground
D                      G
Nothing can break her, no
one can tame
D                    G
Something that can't be found

All the miles and the tears

Through the long hard years
       G                      D
