Ride me down easy, Lord, ride me on [G] down,
Lead word in the dust where I lay,
Say I'm easy come, easy go,
And easy to love when I stay.
This old highway, she's hotter [C] than nine kinds of hail,
[D] The rides this scarce [G] as the rain,
[D] [F#] When [G] you're down to your last shot [C] with nothing to sell,
[D] And too far away from [G] the train.
And a good month of Sundays [C] had I get to go,
[D] I had a tall drink of [G] yesterday's wine,
[D] [G] Left a long string of friends, [C] some sheets in the wind,
And [D] some satisfied women [G] behind.
So won't you ride me down easy, [C] Lord, ride me [Am] on down,
[D] Lead word in the dust where [G] I lay,
Say I'm easy come, [C] easy [Am] go,
[D] And easy to love when [G] I stay.
[Am]
[D] [G] I put snow on the mountain, [C] raised hell on the hill,
[D] Locked horns with the devil [G] himself,
[D] And [G] a rodeo bum, [C] a son of a gun,
[D] And a hobo with stars in [G] his crown.
So won't you ride me down easy, [C] Lord, ride me on down,
[D] Lead word in the dust where [G] I lay,
Say I'm easy come, [C] easy [Am] go,
[D] And easy to love when [G] I stay.
