Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

 I hear you talk about your childhood days

 And a story you once told, how you were nine years old

 And all you wanted was a horse to ride

 But your mama never knew you'd be leavin' her behind

 It's no wonder why you roam

 Wild horses always run free

 And I can hear her now

 As she walked the floor back and forth

 Your mama should have bought you a rockin' horse

 I was warned about guys like you

 But girls like me, like to have fun too

 Holdin' on just as long as I can

 Tryin' to keep you in one place

 And that's how it's always been

 It's no wonder why you roam

 Wild horses always run free

 And I swear out loud

 As I walk this floor back and forth

 Your mama should have bought you a rockin' horse

 I can feel it in the chilly wind

 It won't be long and you'll be coming home again

 It's no wonder why you roam

 Wild horses always run free

 And I swear out loud

 As I walk this floor back and forth

 Your mama should have bought you a rockin' horse
