Tom: C
C G C
And she always wanted a buckskin horse
F C
With a yearning burnt deep in her soul
G
In dreams she’d ride the hills at night
F G
With the river running somewhere far below
F
She’d feel the power beneath her
C Am
And up the trail they’d fly
F
And his coat would shine and gleam
G F C
Like the secrets behind her eyes
[Verse 2]
C G C
And she always wanted a buckskin horse
F C
And his breath would smoke when snow was on the ground
G
He’d test the air with nostrils flared
F
And together they’d ride the morning down
C Am
When she climbed upon his back
F
She’d finally know just what her life was for
G F C
And she’d ride across the skyline to meet it
F C
On that buckskin horse
[Chorus]
G F C
And her dreams, it seems, they’re a long time coming
G F
It seems she can almost touch ‘em
G
Perhaps she never will
Em F C
In her dreams, it seems, she is on that pony running
F Dm
Running down the river’s course
F C
On that buckskin horse
[Verse 3]
C G C
She always wanted a buckskin horse
F C
And though life can push a dream aside
G
Within the ranges of the heart
F G
There are miles and miles to ride
F
If you ask she’ll say it’s nothing
C Am
Just a fantasy, of course
F
But like a secret hidden just behind her eyes
F C
There’s a buckskin horse
[Chorus]
G F C
And her dreams, it seems, they’re a long time coming
G F
It seems she can almost touch ‘em
G
Perhaps one day she will
Em F C
In her dreams, it seems, she is on that pony running
F Dm
Running down the river’s course
F C
On that buckskin horse
