Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

  The highway she's a hotter than nine times the hell

  The rides are as scarce as the rain

  When your down to your last shuck with nothing to sell

  And too far away from the train

Verse 2

  Been a good month of Sunday's and a guitar ago

  Had a tall drink of yesterday's wine

  Left a long string of friends,some sheets in the wind

  And some satisfied woman behind

Chorus

  Hey ride me down easy Lord,ride me on down

  Leave word in the dust where i lay

  Say i'm easy come,easy go

  Easy to love when i stay

Verse 3

  I've put snow on the mountain,raised hell on the hill

  I locked horns with the devil himself

  Been a rodeo fool,a son of a gun

  And a hobo with stars in his crown

Chorus.

  Ride me down easy Lord,ride me on down
