[Verse 1]
E C#m A
I'm gonna steal me a silver stallion
E C#m A
With not a mark upon his silky hide
C#m G#m A
Teach him he can trust me like a brother
E C#m A
One day we'll saddle up and ride
[Chorus]
C#m G#m
And we're gonna ride, we're gonna ride
A
Ride like the one eyed jack of diamonds
With the devil close behind
C#m
We're gonna ride
[Verse 2]
E C#m A
I'm gonna find me a reckless woman
E C#m A
Razor blades and dice in her eyes
C#m G#m A
Just a touch of sadness in her fingers
E C#m A
Thunder and lightening in her thighs
[Chorus]
C#m G#m
And we're gonna ride, we're gonna ride
A
Ride like the one eyed jack of diamonds
With the devil close behind
C#m
We're gonna ride
[Verse 3]
E C#m A
I'm gonna chase the sky forever
E C#m A
With the woman and the stallion and the wind
C#m G#m A
And the sun is gonna burn into a cinder
E C#m A
Before we ever pass this way again
[Chorus]
C#m G#m
And we're gonna ride, we're gonna ride
A
Ride like the one eyed jack of diamonds
With the devil close behind
C#m
We're gonna ride
