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