G C G
The show was a big one, an old rodeo
A D
They'd been trying to hire us for a few years or so
C G
The grandstand was bursting, the infield was full
D G
They'd run all the chucks and they'd bucked all the bulls
G C G
I felt stiff in the saddle, had been a year since I'd rode
A D
And I'd never been on him save an afternoon lope
C G
But this was the last thing on my tortured mind
D G
As I put heels to belly and my band played the time
D C G
He was a big sorrel gelding with a golden streaked mane
D C G
A silver mounted saddle and hand braided reins
G F G
He had one blue eye that was clear like the rain
D G
But the horse I rode in on felt none of my pain(Intro)
G C G Well we made quite an entrance in show business style A D And ten thousand people all witnessed my smile C G But you were not there among them I'm sorry to say D G As I rode through the crowd toward the big outdoor stage G C G If my pony was skittish with all the people around A D And if he spooked just a little when the spotlight shone down C G It's nothing compared to the heart break and pain D G That come with a love that has withered in vain D C G He was a big sorrel gelding with a golden streaked mane D C G A silver mounted saddle and hand braided reins G F G He had one blue eye that was clear like the rain D G But the horse I rode in on felt none of my pain
(Intro)
G C G So we played through the show like I always do A D I sang every one of the love songs for you C G Then I climbed right back on him and I spurred him away
And as the cheers and the dust from the arena did fade
D G I didn’t feel like no cowboy anymore, anyway D C G He was a big sorrel gelding with a golden streaked mane D C G A silver mounted saddle and hand braided reins G F G He had one blue eye that was clear like the rain D G But the horse I rode in on felt none of my pain
