She was a beautiful girl

She was wild as the wind

On top of the world
FF C majorC
Till she fell in love with him

Everyone told her he was bad news
FF G+G
A augmentedA boy goin' nowhere ain't no good for you
(Chorus)
C majorC G+G FF C majorC
'Cause wild ponies are born to run
G+G
Don't ya know wild ponies
FF C majorC
Don't belong to no one
FF G+G C majorC
So baby run, run, run away
The first time he hit her
Was right after church
He said he was sorry
But he'd only gotten worse
Now she's not the same girl
That he used to be he's brakin' her spirit
He's fencin' her dreams
Chorus

FF
She went out for groceries
Just an ordinary day
G+G
She realized she was just
A augmentedA block from the interstate
FF
She sat at the stoplight
The wheel in her hands
G+G
And when the light changed
She knew this was her chance
Chorus (play chords softly)
