  			C/G 
Traveling with the rodeo 
C7                            Dm7 
It's the only life I'll ever know 
G                        
It started in New Mexico 
G7                               C/G 
Must have been a thousand years ago 

C/G  
I used to be the best they say 
C7                                  Dm7 
At riding young wild horses for my pay 
G 
But now I'm much too old it seems 
G7                                C/G 
I only ride wild horses in my dreams 

They used to tell me
