Intro
G#
[Verse 1]
G#
Say a prayer for the cowgirl her horse ran away
C#
She'll walk til she finds him her darling her stray
G#
But the rivers in flood and the roads are awash
D# G#
And the bridges break up in the panic of loss
[Verse 2]
G#
And there's nothing to follow nowhere to go
C#
He's gone like the summer gone like the snow
G#
And the crickets are breaking her heart with their song
D# G#
As the day caves in and the night is all wrong
[Verse 3]
G#
Did she dream was it he who went galloping past
C#
And bent down the fern broke open the grass
G#
And printed the mud with the well-hammered shoe
D# G#
That she nailed to his feet in the dreams of her youth
[Verse 4]
G#
And although he goes grazing a minute away
C#
She tracks him all night she tracks him all day
G#
And she's blind to his presence except to compare
D# G#
Her injury here with his punishment there
[Bridge 1]
C#
Then at home on a branch on a high stream
G#
F# Songbird sings out so suddenly
C#
And the sun is warm and the soft winds ride
G# D# G#
On a willow tree by the riverside
[Verse 5]
G#
All the world is sweet and the world is wide
C#
He's there where the light and the darkness divide
G#
And the steam's coming off him he's huge and he's shy
D# G#
And he steps on the moon when he paws at the sky
[Verse 6]
G#
And he comes to her hand but he's not really tame
C#
He longs to be lost she longs for the same
G#
And he'll bolt and he'll plunge through the first open pass
D# G#
To roll and to feed in the sweet mountain grass
[Verse 7]
G#
Or he'll make a break for the high plateau
C#
Where there's nothing above and nothing below
G#
It's time for their burden the whip and the spur
D# G#
Will she ride with him or will he ride with her
[Bridge 2]
C#
So she binds herself to her galloping steed
G#
And he binds himself to the woman in need
C#
And there is no space just left and right
G# D# G#
And there is no time but there is day and night
[Verse 8]
G#
And she leans on his neck and whispers low
C#
Whither thou goest I will go
G#
And they turn as one and they head for the plain
D# G#
No need for the whip or no need for the rein
[Verse 9]
G#
Now the clasp of this union who fastens it tight
C#
Who snaps it asunder the very next night
G#
Some say it's him some say it's her
D# G#
Some say love's like smoke beyond all repair
[Verse 10]
G#
So my darling my darling just let it go by
C#
That old silhouette on the great western sky
G#
And I'll pick out a tune and they'll move right along
D# G#
And they're gone like smoke and the're gone like this song
[Outro]
G#
Say a prayer for the cowgirl
