[D] [F#m] [D]
[A]
[D] I've been chasing [Bm] for weeks now.
Oh, I'd catch a [E] glimpse of [A] her every once in a [D] while.
She's taking her meal, her bathing.
[G] A real fine lady.
[F#] [E] [A]
[Em] [D] [A] This one day I happened to see [Bm] her standing over there in a [G] clarinet.
So [D] I snuck up to [G] her nice and easy.
[D] And [F#m] I got [Bm] my rope out and [G] [Bm] [E] I flung it in the [A] air.
[G] [Bm] I'm gonna [E] catch that horse [D] if I [F#m] [Bm] can.
[G] [B] And when [E] I [A] do I'll give her [D] my [F#m] friend.
[Bm] [A]
[G] [Bm] And we'll [E] be friends for [Bm] [G] life.
[F#m] She'll [Bm] be [Em] just like you [G] are.
[F#m] I'm [Em] gonna catch [A] that horse [D] if I [F#m] can.
[Bm] [A]
[D] And I got [F#m] her [Bm] and we were falling [G] down this [Bm] cliff.
About a [C#] mile down [D] I'd say.
I look down there [E] [G] and I see this red thing [Bm] below us.
[Em] It was our reflection [D] in a little pool of water.
About [Bm] six feet wide [D] and one [G] foot deep.
We're coming down there [E]
[D] about 32 feet [F#m] per second [Bm] per second.
Finally we hit [G] the splash, that pool drive.
[Em] [A]
[D] [F#m] That's when I lost [Bm] my hold and she got [G] away.
[Bm] But I'm gonna get [E] her again [G] someday.
[Bm] I'm [Em] gonna catch [A] that horse if [D] I [F#m] can.
[Bm]
[G] [F#] And when [Em] I do [A] I'll give her [D] my [F#m] friend.
[Bm] [A]
[G] [Bm] And we'll [E] be friends [Bm] for life.
[G] [Bm] She'll be [E] just like [G] you are.
I'm [Em] gonna catch that [G] horse.
I'm gonna [Em] catch [A] that [G] horse.
[D] I'm gonna [Em] [A] catch that horse if [D] I [F#m] [Bm] can.
[A]
[G] [Bm] I'm gonna [Em] catch [A] that horse [G] if I [Bm] can.
