Live Like Horses
[INTRO]
Ab/Db Gb/Db Ab/Db Ab/Db
[VERSE I]
Ab/Db Gb/Db
I can't control this flesh and blood
Ab/Db Gb/Db
That's wrapped around my bones
GbM7/Bb
It moves beneath me like a river
Ebm7 Ab7
Into the great unknown
[VERSE II]
Ab/Db Gb/Db
I stepped onto the moving stairs
Ab/Db Gb/Db
Before I could tie my shoes
GbM7/Bb
Pried a harp out the fingers of a renegade
Ebm7 Ab7
Who lived and died the blues
[BRIDGE]
Bbm
And his promise made was never clear
Gb Ab
It just carved itself in me
Bbm
All I saw was frost inside my head
Gb Ab
On the night he said to me
[CHORUS]
Db Ab/C
Someday we'll live like horses
Bbm Ab/C
Free rein from your old iron fences
Gb Db/Ab
There's more ways than one to regain your senses
Gb/Bb Ab7/C Db
Break out the stalls and we'll live like horses
[INSTRUMENTAL]
Db Ab/C Bbm Gb Ab
[VERSE III]
Ab/Db Gb/Db
We're the victims of the heartbreak
Ab/Db Gb/Db
That kept us short of breath
GbM7/Bb
Trapped above these bloodless streets
Ebm7 Ab7
Without a safety net
[VERSE IV]
Ab/Db Gb/Db
I stood in line to join the trial
Ab/Db Gb/Db
One more customer of fate
GbM7/Bb
Claimed a spoke in the wheel of the wagon train
Ebm7 Ab7
On the road to the golden gate
[BRIDGE]
Bbm
On the flat cracked desert I jumped ship
Gb Ab
It just made sense to me
Bbm
I've spent too long in the belly of the beast
Gb Ab
And now I shall be free
[CHORUS]
Db Ab/C
Someday we'll live like horses
Bbm Ab/C
Free rein from your old iron fences
Gb Db/Ab
There's more ways than one to regain your senses
Gb/Bb Ab7/C Db
Break out the stalls and we'll live like horses
