Baby Ride Easy

Tom: G

Em D  Cadd9  G D

[Verse 1]
   G
If I drove a truck
    C
And I were a waitress
    G
And I ordered coffee
                 D
And I poured you some
C
Then you'd stop by
        G
On your way sometime later
G
And if we arm-wrestled
    D            G
I'd say that you won

[Chorus]
Em        D
Ai-ee, my baby, ride easy
     C                      G
Ride high in the saddle all day
D        G         C
 If your lovin' is good
         D             G
And your cookin' ain't greasy
                   C
Hitch up the chuck wagon
    D           G
And we'll ride away

[Verse 2]
G                   C
If I were a winsome pale senorita
    G                             D
And I a bull-fighter, down in the sand
          C
While the band kept on playing
     G
That old Paso Doble
G
I'd throw you a flower
      D           G
Would you take my hand?

[Chorus]
Em        D
Ai-ee, my baby, ride easy
     C                      G
Ride high in the saddle all day
D        G         C
 If your lovin' is good
         D             G
And your cookin' ain't greasy
                   C
Hitch up the chuck wagon
    D           G
And we'll ride away

[Verse 3]
G
If I ran the country
          C
Yeah, I'd be your first lady
    G
And fix up the white house
                D
While you were away
C                         G
Waitin' while I'm passing time
G
With world leaders
                     D             G
And later, together alone we might lay

[Chorus]
Em        D
Ai-ee, my baby, ride easy
     C                      G
Ride high in the saddle all day
D        G         C
 If your lovin' is good
         D             G
And your cookin' ain't greasy
                   C
Hitch up the chuck wagon
    D           G
And we'll ride away
Em        D
Ai-ee, my baby, ride easy
     C                      G
Ride high in the saddle all day
D        G         C
 If your lovin' is good
         D             G
And your cookin' ain't greasy
                   C
Hitch up the chuck wagon
    D           G
And we'll ride away

[Outro]
G                  C
Hitch up the chuck wagon
    G
And we'll ride away
                   C
Hitch up the chuck wagon
    D           G
And we'll ride away
                   C
Hitch up the chuck wagon
G
Hitch up the chuck wagon
G
Hitch up the chuck wagon
G
And we'll ride away
