[Intro]
| D | A | D |
[Verse]
D A D I was barely 13 years old, she came out of the Guadalupe's on a night so cold D A D Her coat was frosted diamonds in the sallow moon's glow, my silver palomino D A D Sixteen hands from her withers to the ground, I lie in bed and listen to the sound D A D Of the west Texas thunder roll, my silver palomino D A D I track her into the mountains she loved, watch her from the rocks above D A D She'd dip her neck and drink from the winter flows, my silver palomino D A D Our mustaneros were the very best sir, but they could never lay a rope on her D A D No corral will ever hold, the silver palomino
[Bridge]
Gadd11/B D A D In my dreams bare-back I ride, over the pradera low and wide Gadd11/B D A As the wind sweeps out the draw, 'cross the scrub desert floor
[Verse]
D A D I'd give my riata and spurs, if I could be for-ever yours D A D | D | A | D | I'd ride into the serrania where no one goes, for my silver palomino D A D Summer drought come hard that year, our herd grazed the land so bare D A D Me and my dad had to blowtorch the thorns off the prickly pear and mother, your hand slipped from my hair D A D Tonight I wake early the sky is pearl, the stars glow, I saddle up my red roan D A D I ride deep into the mountains along a ridge of pale stone, where the air is still with the coming snow D A D As I rise higher I can smell your hair, the scent of your skin, mother, fills the air D A D 'Midst the harsh scrub pine that grows, I watch the silver palomino
