          C   Cmaj7           Fmaj7   Fmaj7*
She comes down   from Yellow Mountain

C  Cmaj7           Fmaj7      Fmaj7*
   On a dark, flat land she rides

F                      Em
   On a pony she named Wildfire

F                      Em
   With a whirlwind by her side

Dm                 Em
   On a cold Nebraska night
[Interlude] C Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7* x2 [Verse 2]
         C  Cmaj7       Fmaj7     Fmaj7*
Oh, they say   she died one winter

C   Cmaj7                Fmaj7   Fmaj7*
   When there came a killing frost 

F                         Em
   And the pony she named Wildfire

F              Em
   Busted down its stall

Dm                  Em
   In a blizzard he was lost
[Chorus]
                F      Em
She ran calling Wild---fire

                F      Em
She ran calling Wild---fire

                F    Em      Dm   G    (C)
She ran calling Wi---i---ld--fi---i----ire
[Interlude] C Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7* x2 [Verse 3]
       C           Cmaj7   Fmaj7     Fmaj7*
By the dark of the moon    I planted

C   Cmaj7                 Fmaj7   Fmaj7*
     But there came an early snow

F                           Em
   Been a hoot owl howlin' by my window now

F                       Em
   For six nights in a row

      Dm               Em
She's comin' for me, I know

     Dm                  Em
And on Wildfire we're both gonna go
[Chorus]
                F      Em
We'll be riding Wild---fire

                F      Em
We'll be riding Wild---fire

                F    Em      Dm   G
We'll be riding Wi---i---ld--fi---i--ire

   F        Em
On Wildfire we're gonna ride

            F        Em
We're gonna leave sodbustin' behind

          F                   Em
Get these hard times right on out of our minds

       F    Em      Dm   G    (C)
Riding Wi---i---ld--fi---i----ire
[Outro] C Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7* x2
