Tom: G
C G
I'm never going back to Mustang Ridge
Em D C
If I ever make it out alive
C G
If you don't see me by the rising sun
D C D
You know I had to take the dive
C G
When the hounds are running down Oso Creek
Em D C
Like Arabs on the track
C G
I'll be halfway across the southern horn
D C D
Too late for turning back
C Em D C
And if I die tonight on the Hays Street Bridge
C G D G
I ain't never going back to Mustang Ridge
[Verse 1]
G C
I got my knee on the wheel and I'm feeling free
G C
With my hobnail on the gas
G D
I just crossed over the county line
C G
Tryna make it up to Wild Rose Pass
G C
Now the radio's saying all hell broke loose
G C
This morning at the Lockhart Jail
G D
Now I'm flying like an angel on Dead Man's Run
C G
I got the devil riding on my tail
Yeah, I do
[Chorus]
C G
I'm never going back to Mustang Ridge
Em D C
If I ever make it out alive
C G
If you don't see me by the rising sun
D C D
You know I had to take the dive
C G
When the hounds are running down Oso Creek
Em D C
Like Arabs on the track
C G
I'll be halfway across the southern horn
D C D
Too late for turning back
C Em D C
And if I die tonight on the Hays Street Bridge
C G D G
I ain't never going back to Mustang Ridge
[Verse 2]
G C
And did you hear they found an old burned-out car
G C
Up in the Davis Hills?
G D
Sheriff said on the evenin' news
C G
"Nobody found but they're looking still"
G C
Now a woman's life ain't just a list
G C
Of the worst things she has done
G D
I'll leave you now with the heart of stone
C G
Sometimes a past is hard to outrun
[Chorus]
C G
I'm never going back to Mustang Ridge
Em D C
If I ever make it out alive
C G
If you don't see me by the rising sun
D C D
You know I had to take the dive
C G
When the hounds are running down Oso Creek
Em D C
Like Arabs on the track
C G
I'll be halfway across the southern horn
D C D
Too late for turning back
C Em D C
And if I die tonight on the Hays Street Bridge
C G D G
I ain't never going back to Mustang Ridge
C Em D C
And if I die tonight on the Hays Street Bridge
C G D G
I ain't never going back to Mustang Ridge
