Intro
D#m F# C# D#m F# G# C#
[Verse 1]
C# G#
I pushed the gate on number eight
F#
Out in Tulsa last night
C# G#
He jumped, bucked and he spun away
F# G#
threw me off in no time
C# G#
The crowd gave, I got up and waved
F#
And forced myself a smile
C# G#
I‘m way sore, but I won’t lay around
F# G#
this ol’ motel room tonight
[Chorus]
D#m F# C#
Too many horses that I need to ride
D#m F# G#
Plenty of life left, just not enough time
D#m F# C#
No I ain’t failed yet, cause I ain’t tried
D#m F# G# C#
Too many horses that I need to ride
[Break]
D#m F# C#
[Verse 2]
C# G#
I could sit around worried about
F#
yesterday’s last nights
C# G#
There ain’t no way that I could change
F# G#
what I’ve done in my life
C# G#
Thought about slowing down and
F#
resting for awhile
C# G#
If could, I don’t think I would
F# G#
I ain’t good at wasting time
[Chorus]
D#m F# C#
Too many horses that I need to ride
D#m F# G#
Plenty of life left, just not enough time
D#m F# C#
No I ain’t failed yet, cause I ain’t tried
D#m F# G# C#
Too many horses that I need to ride
[Solo]
D#m F# C# D#m F# G#
[Chorus]
D#m F# C#
Too many horses that I need to ride
D#m F# G#
Plenty of life left, just not enough time
D#m F# C#
No I ain’t failed yet, cause I ain’t tried
D#m F# G# C#
Too many horses that I need to ride
D#m F# G# C#
There’s too many horses that I need to ride
[Outro]
