♫ Intro:

Dm


♫ Verse 1:
Dm                                  Bb
Born and raised in a motel in New Orleans
Dm                                   Bb      C
I ran away with a hobo and his gypsy friends
Dm                                                       Bb
We rode a freight train up to Cleveland, across the Utah plains
Dm                              Bb     C
Proud men, troubadours torn and frayed
F                  Dm
Sleeping under the stars
F                         C
While gently strumming guitars
           Bb
Played the songs of Woddy Guthrie
Bb
And the open road
  C
I knew right then I could never go home

♫ Chorus:
           F                       C
'Cause the wild horse runs free forever
           Bb                      F
Oh yeah, a wild horse runs free forever

And ever and ever


♫ Verse 2:
Dm                                         Bb
I met a girl from a family of position and wealth
Dm                                        Bb    C
What a hand this rambler had been finally dealt
F                      Dm
A beauty six years and 10
F                        C
I felt the walls closing in
       Bb
Like a swollen river 'bout to overflow
       C
Like a losing gambler, I kept on rolling


♫ Chorus:
      F                       C
And a wild horse runs free forever
C
Yeah, yeah, yeah

A wild horse runs free forever

The wild horse runs free forever
C
Yeah, yeah, yeah

A wild horse runs free forever

Oh, here's to the heart

And the hands of a man

That come with the dust

And are gone with the wind
