Intro: C9 G C9 G C9 C9 G C9
G C9 G C9
Horse and the Crow were some pretty good friends
G C9 G C9
Living from the same suit-case
G C9 G C9
They spoke in tongs that we couldn’t understand
G C9 G C9
But that’s the way it was back in those days
G C9 G C9
And all that summer long they were driving through the south
G C9 G C9
From China to Bolivia they were living hand to mouth
D C9 G C9 G
And they were careless then and that road went on and on
C9 D G C9
Well it's a wonder and a shame All those crazy days have gone
G C9 G C9 G C9
G C9 G C9
First this happened, that happened and every-thing changes
G C9 G C9
The Crow she took off in a straight line
G C9 G C9
Even the horse took a job making twenty bucks a day
G C9 G C9
And for reason started looking for a sign
G C9 G C9
When everywhere he looked, every-thing was white
G C9 G C9
Some-times he thought he saw something moving in the night
D C9 G C9 G
And they were careless then and that road went on and on
C9 D G C9
Well it's a wonder and a shame All those crazy days have gone
G C9 G C9 G C9
G C9 G C9
Seemed like the hours they could measure into weeks
G C9 G C9
The Crow’s Horse since was dead
G C9 G C9
Passing through the capitals of the west-ern worlds unleashed
G C9 G C9
She was headed for Las Vegas to put every-thing on red
G C9 G C9
This world sets a price on love they kind you can’t forget
G C9 G C9
Through the ending of this story, it hasn’t happened yet
D C9 G C9 G
And they were careless then and that road went on and on
C9 D G C9
Well it's a wonder and a shame All those crazy days have gone
G C9 G C9 G C9
