The Horse I Rode In On
Corb Lund
Album: Horse Soldier! Horse Soldier!
Remember this tab is relative to the capo.
On the intro you can do the sliding or hammer-ons/pull-offs that you like,
I just straight pick every note.
Capo 4

G C G
The show was a big one, an old rodeo
A D
They'd been trying to hire us for a few years or so
C G
The grandstand was bursting, the infield was full
D G
They'd run all the chucks and they'd bucked all the bulls
G C G
I felt stiff in the saddle, had been a year since I'd rode
A D
And I'd never been on him save an afternoon lope
C G
But this was the last thing on my tortured mind
D G
As I put heels to belly and my band played the time
D C G
He was a big sorrel gelding with a golden streaked mane
D C G
A silver mounted saddle and hand braided reins
G F G
He had one blue eye that was clear like the rain
D G
But the horse I rode in on felt none of my pain
(Intro)
G C G
Well we made quite an entrance in show business style
A D
And ten thousand people all witnessed my smile
C G
But you were not there among them I'm sorry to say
D G
As I rode through the crowd toward the big outdoor stage
G C G
If my pony was skittish with all the people around
A D
And if he spooked just a little when the spotlight shone down
C G
It's nothing compared to the heart break and pain
D G
That come with a love that has withered in vain
D C G
He was a big sorrel gelding with a golden streaked mane
D C G
A silver mounted saddle and hand braided reins
G F G
He had one blue eye that was clear like the rain
D G
But the horse I rode in on felt none of my pain
(Intro)
G C G
So we played through the show like I always do
A D
I sang every one of the love songs for you
C G
Then I climbed right back on him and I spurred him away
And as the cheers and the dust from the arena did fade
D G
I didn’t feel like no cowboy anymore, anyway
D C G
He was a big sorrel gelding with a golden streaked mane
D C G
A silver mounted saddle and hand braided reins
G F G
He had one blue eye that was clear like the rain
D G
But the horse I rode in on felt none of my pain
(Intro)
