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
