Key: Dm β™« Intro: Dm β™« 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
β™« Chorus: F C 'Cause the wild horse runs free forever Bb F Oh yeah, a wild horse runs free forever Dm And ever and ever β™« 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 β™« Chorus: F C And a wild horse runs free forever C Yeah, yeah, yeah Bb F A wild horse runs free forever C The wild horse runs free forever C Yeah, yeah, yeah Bb F A wild horse runs free forever F Play the guitar Guitar β™« Solo: Dm Bb Dm Bb C β™« Bridge: F Dm So understand I must go F C I'll drink you one last toast Bb Oh, here's to the heart Bb And the hands of a man C That come with the dust C And are gone with the wind β™« Chorus: F C May the wild horse runs free forever Bb F Yeah, a wild horse runs free forever C The wild horse runs free forever Bb F Yeah, the wild horse run free forever β™« Outro: F C Wild guitar, baby, come on, wild Bb F I know, I know, I know, I know F Play it for me, come on C Bb Yeah, hit it. Yeah yeah. F Let me hear it, yeah C The wild horse run free
