Chords

written by Billy Joe Shaver performed by Waylon Jennings. [Verse 1]
    D                         G
The highway she's hotter than nine kinds the hell

    A                                D
The rides, they're as scarce as the rain

            D                            G
When you're down to your last shuck with nothing to sell

    A                     D
And too far away from the train
[Verse 2]
       D                           G
Been a good month of Sundays and a guitar ago

      A                         D
Had a tall drink of yesterday's wine

       D                            G
Left a long string of friends, some sheets in the wind

         A                  D
And some satisfied women behind
[Chorus]
     D                       G
Hey, ride me down easy Lord, ride me on down

      A                        D
Leave word in the dust where I lay

        D          G
Say I'm easy come, easy go

    A                   D
And easy to love when I stay
[Verse 3]
         D                            G
I've put snow on the mountain, raised hell on the hill

         A                       D
I locked horns with the devil himself

       D         G
Been a rodeo bum, a son of a gun

      A                       D
And a hobo with stars in his crown
[Chorus]
   D                       G
So ride me down easy Lord, ride me on down

      A                        D
Leave word in the dust where I lay

        D         G
Say I'm easy come, easy go

    A                    D
And easy to love when I stay

D                      G
Ride me down easy Lord, ride me on down
