G Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4

Verse 1:
G                      Cadd9
 She stepped on my heel the first time I caught her
Em7                        Dsus4
 But somethin restrained me when I turned to swat her
G                             Cadd9
 Those soft deep dark eyes and Her quiet demeanor Too
Em7                  Dsus4         G         Cadd9
 I could forgive her and she was a keeper
G                                Cadd9
 She sure broke out easy she was naturally kind
             Em7                  Dsus4
And You know those kinda horses are so hard to find
G           Cadd9
 I sent her to Wyomin to become a cowhorse
Em7                        Dsus4            G           Cadd9
 And she became a good hand all through the Big Horns

G                                 Cadd9
 She learned to cut and sort there she packed elk and mule deer
Em7                             Dsus4
 She gathered in the Snowy Range down on Rabbit Ears
G                                   Cadd9
 Then she started coughin’ from some bad hay in Rawlins
Em7                      Dsus4              G        Cadd9
 I knew there was trouble when they started callin’
G                     Cadd9
 So I went and got her brought her back to Utah
Em7                                      Dsus4
 She had a high jugular pulse and she was sucked in and gaunt
G                                    Cadd9
 The Vet put her on albuterol and she came back to life
Em7                             Dsus4            G       Cadd9
 She carried my children and she Took Care Of my wife

G                          Cadd9
 Then tragedy struck and my son he got cancer
Em7                                  Dsus4
 She knew somethin’ was wrong but she didn’t have any answers
G                               Cadd9
 I left he with a friend of mine up Franklin Canyon
Em7                                     Dsus4        G          Cadd9
 I saw her in the rearview mirror lookin’ scared and abandoned
G                                    Cadd9
 Fourteen long months were spent just fightin’ for dear life
Em7                                Dsus4
 I wanted to saddle up and ride but I couldn’t Bear To leave my wife
      G                                         Cadd9
 Then we brought her and my son back home it was one sweet reunion
Em7                                 Dsus4           G      Cadd9

Bridge:
G Cadd9 Em7 Dsus4

Em7              Cadd9          G         Dsus4
 somewhere in the middle of the night One Night
Em7          Cadd9       G          Dsus4
 I heard her cough Again out in the moonlight

Verse 4:

G                          Cadd9
 I knew her time was short I Knew the end was comin’
Em7                                Dsus4                G      Cadd9
 But there was one more job for her before her time was done
G                          Cadd9
 She became a therapy horse for my little boy
Em7                          Dsus4
 I knew she found a job again I Knew it brought her joy
G                            Cadd9
 The days turned into months and months turned into years
Em7                                      Dsus4        G      Cadd9
 One mornin’ my wife came in from feedin’ drownin’ in tears
G                            Cadd9
 As Jessie was sick and dyin’ I’d waited For too long
Em7                                    Dsus4
 I couldn’t stand the thought of livin’ With her bein’ gone
G                           Cadd9
 I’ll never forget the tears from my wife and daughter
Em7                                  Dsus4            G           Cadd9
 And the Loving look in Jessie’s eyes the last time I caught her
