Tom: Em Em D Am Em D [Verse 1] Em In the days when horses rode D And man made the wind Am The north became our leader Em D When the west turned its back on the sun again Em We moved like whittled water D Sped by narrowed stone C Am D Em In the da-ays when horses rode [Verse 2] Em Our feet squeezed their barrel chests D Their feet barreled through the dirt Am No line between man and beast Em D And we were one with the earth Em Down narrow mountain passes D You’d never make it through alone C Am D Em In the da-ays when horses rode [Refrain] C Em Oh-oh my sweet Harriet D She turned like a rhyme C That you hear and can’t forget C Em Faster than your last drink goes dry D Am Em Fast enough to save your life [Verse 3] Em Unbroken spirits carried home D Broken men and broken bones Am Hooves and heroes gathered Em D In the middle of the main road Em Breaking the news we’d known for weeks D To women and children with tear-stained cheeks C Am D Em In the da-ays when horses rode [Refrain] C Em Oh-oh my sweet Harriet D She turned like a rhyme C That you hear and can’t forget C Em Faster than your last drink goes dry D Am Em Fast enough to save your life [Intro] Em D Am Em D Em D C Am D Em [Verse 4] Em Me and my mare went back to work D Tending the farm and the pasture Am Till she walked alone past the boundary line Em D I knew not to follow after Em There were things that were hard to believe D And things that you had to C Am D Em In the da-ays when horses rode [Refrain] C Em Oh-oh my sweet Harriet D She turned like a rhyme C That you hear and can’t forget C Em Faster than your last drink goes dry D Am Em Fast enough to save your life D Am Em Fast enough to save your liiiiiiiiife
