True[Am] you ride the finest horse I've[F] ever seen
[G]Standing sixteen one or two with eyes[Am] wild and green
And[Am] you ride the horse so well hands[F] light to the totch
[G]I could never go with you no matter how I[Am] wanted to
[Chorus]
[Am]Ride on,[F]see you,
[G]I could never go with you no matter how I[Am] wanted to
 
When you ride into the night without a trace behind
Run your claw along my gut one last time
I turn to face an empty space where you used to lie
And look for the smile to light the night through a teardrop in my eye.
[Chorus twice]
Key of G
True[Em] you ride the finest horse I've[C] ever seen
[D]Standing sixteen one or two with eyes[Em] wild and green
And[Em] you ride the horse so well hands[C] light to the totch
[D]I could never go with you no matter how I[Em] wanted to

[Em]Ride on,[C]see you,
[D]I could never go with you no matter how I[Em] wanted to
Acts 3:19
