Verse
F#
I was six years old, my brother was ten
C#sus2/F
One July day came running in,
D#m
seen a ferris wheel at the edge of town
B F#
So, of course, we headed on down
F#
Well it took us an hour to walk that far
C#sus2/F
Carrying our fortune in a Mason jar
D#m
It was all pretty sad, a cheap county fair
B F#
With a few old rides but there was ponies there
F#
Well, the ponies stunk and the air was still
C#sus2/F
In that dusty circle behind the ferris wheel
D#m B
This old guy smelling of smoke and rum
F#
Swung me up and sat me down on one
F#
Well I'd never rode a horse but I'd seen it done
C#sus2/F
Cowboy movies made it look like fun
D#m
This old man whispered a few soft words
B
It was the best advice I've ever heard
[Chorus]
B F#
He said "Sit tall in the saddle, hold your head up high
C# F#
Keep your eyes fixed where the trail meets the sky
B F#
And live like you ain't afraid to die
C# F#
And don't be scared, just enjoy your ride"
[Verse 2]
F#
I went up a kid with shaking hands
C#sus2/F
And I came down a full grown man
D#m
It was like he'd cast some Voodoo spell
B F#
Things were different for me now, I could tell
F#
'Cos whenever troubles come wandering in
C#sus2/F
His rhyme would pop in my head again
D#m
And somehow I rode through the needles and nails
B F#
Brambles and thorns that life entails
[Chorus]
B F#
He said "Sit tall in the saddle, hold your head up high
C# F#
Keep your eyes fixed where the trail meets the sky
B F#
And live like you ain't afraid to die
C# F#
And don't be scared, just enjoy your ride"
[Verse 3]
F#
Well I know some day farther down the road
C#sus2/F
I'll come to the edge of the great unknown
D#m
There'll stand a black horse riderless
B F#
And I wonder if I'm ready for this
F#
So I'll saddle him up and he'll switch his tail
C#sus2/F
And I'll tip my hat and bid fairwell
D#m
And lift my song into the air
B F#
That I learned at that dusty fair
[Chorus]
B F#
"Sit tall in the saddle, hold your head up high
C# F#
Keep your eyes fixed where the trail meets the sky
B F#
And live like you ain't afraid to die
C# D#m
And don't be scared, just enjoy your ride"
C# F#
Now don't be scared, just enjoy your ride
