Album: Horse Soldier! Horse Soldier!
Intro:
D G D G D G D G
There's sDomething about hGorses, Despecially a pGaint
WhenDever I see hGorses, it Amreminds me of what I Dain'tG  
'Cause GI am not your loveDr now, and GI may never Dbe
But with a cGouple pinto pDonies how things Amgo, we'll have to sDee
'Cause they're Ghitched outside to the Drail right now,
and their sGilver jangles fDree
And the sGaddle bags are Dsnugged right down, sugar Amride away with mDeG  D  G  
There's sDomething about hGorses, Despecially a pGaint
WhenDever I see hoGrses, I see a saAmdness in their fDaceG  
Well I Gwas raised with the wDest around, enoGugh to hum the tDune
But I nGever knew the place like the oDld boys did,
ChinAmooked and mountain viDewed
Cause Gthis was all a cathDedral then, and the cGowboys they all kDnew
That you cGan't keep a loop on paDradise, but she dAmisappeared so sDoonG  
She dAmisappeared so sDoonG  D  G  
There's sDomething about hGorses, Despecially a pGaint
WhenDever I see hoGrses, I see the pAmath I didn't tDake

Album: Horse Soldier! Horse Soldier!

Intro:

D G D G D G D G

D G D G

There's something about horses, especially a paint

D G Am D G

Whenever I see horses, it reminds me of what I ain't

G D G D

'Cause I am not your lover now, and I may never be

G D Am D

But with a couple pinto ponies how things go, we'll have to see

G D

'Cause they're hitched outside to the rail right now,

G D

and their silver jangles free

G D Am D G D G

And the saddle bags are snugged right down, sugar ride away with me

D G D G

There's something about horses, especially a paint

D G Am D G

Whenever I see horses, I see a sadness in their face

G D G D

Well I was raised with the west around, enough to hum the tune

G D

But I never knew the place like the old boys did,

Am D

Chinooked and mountain viewed

G D G D

Cause this was all a cathedral then, and the cowboys they all knew

G D Am D G

That you can't keep a loop on paradise, but she disappeared so soon

Am D G D G

She disappeared so soon

D G D G

There's something about horses, especially a paint

D G Am D

Whenever I see horses, I see the path I didn't take
