The horse I ride is old, but he [Bb] has served me well
[Dm] [Gm]
Coat like gold, tobacco rich [C] and warm
He [F] is old, but he is sound
[Bb] My rain chains ring like bells
[Gm] We fit well together as [C] we glide [A] above [Dm] the stone
And
[F]
the boots I wear are old, but they [Bb] have served me well
[Gm] Leather like gold, tobacco cracked and [C] brown
[F] The tops are scuffed and broken
[Bb] My spur chains ring like bells
[C] My [Gm] rows gleam like the starlight
[C] And up here [A] we [Dm] spurn the ground
[F] And [Eb] the trails I ride are new
[Bb] Even though I've made the circle many [F] times [Cm] before
[F] For [Cm] they change with every season and [F] with every shift of light
From [Bb] the summit where the clouds fall to the [Gm] sweet valley [Eb] floor
[C] [F] And the saddle I ride is old, but it [Bb] has served me well
[Dm]
[Gm] Leather like gold, tobacco buffed and [C] smooth
[F] It fits me like a friend
[Bb] With no secrets left to tell
[Dm]
[Gm] Astride I make the circle and [C] I arrive [A] where [Dm] I choose
[F] And [Eb] the trails I ride are new
Even [Bb] though I've made the circle many [F] times [Cm] before
For [F] they [C] change with every [Cm] season and [F] with every shift of light
From [Bb] the summit where the clouds fall to the [Gm] sweet valley [Eb] floor
[Gm]
[C] And [F] the life I live goes on, it [Bb] fits me oh so well
[Dm]
[Gm] Old and new together,
[C] evergreen
I
[F] mount my horse at dawn and [Bb] my heart rings like a bell
[Dm]
[Gm] We ride through the canyons [C] where the air
[A] is fresh [Dm] and clean
