Spookin' The Horses

Fred Eaglesmith


Tom: D

Bm                               D 
You're spookin' the horses, they're wild and they're scared, 
                          Bm                                D     D7 
With that bright coloured makeup and those clothes that you wear 
               G                             Bm 
And I seen you dancing last night 'neath the trees 
                    D     A                    D   G  D 
You're spookin' the horses, and you're scaring me 
 
Where the road meets the highway, those bright city lights 
Must have shone though your windshield and got into your eyes 
And I guess you thought that they'd set you free 
You're spookin' the horses, and you're scaring me 
 
 
Bridge: 
                      G            D 
You're not tying your hair back anymore 
                   A                        D      D7 
And you're wearing dresses like you never before 
                   G                     Bm 
And you're driving faster than I've ever seen 
                    D     A                    D  
You're spookin' the horses, and you're scaring me 
 
 
I can hear the gears grinding, where you make the turn 
And up on the skyline, those headlights just burn 
And the horses go running, and my heart just screams 
You're spookin' the horses, and you're scaring me 
 
 
                          A                    D 
You're spookin' the horses, and you're scaring me
