Chasin' Wild Horses lyrics

Guess it was somethin'

I shouldn't have done

Guess I regret it now

Ever since I was a kid

Tryin' to keep my temper down is like

Chasin' wild horses,

chasin' wild horses

Chasin' wild horses

Left my home, left my friends

I didn't say goodbye

I contract out to the BLM

Up on the Montana line

Chasin' wild horses,

chasin' wild horses

We're out before sunup

In after sundown

There's two men in the chopper

Two under saddle on the ground

In the evenings we'd hop in the pickup

Head into town for a drink

I make sure I work 'til

I'm so damn tired

Way too tired to think

You lose track of time

It's all just storms blowin' through

You come rollin' 'cross my mind

Your hair flashin' in the blue

Like wild horses,

just like wild horses

Just like wild horses

A fingernail moon in a twilight sky

I'm ridin' in the high grass of the switchback

I shout your name into the canyon

The echo throws it back

The winter snow whites out the plains

'Til it can turn you blind

The only thing up here I've found

Is tryin' to get you off mind

Is like chasin' wild horses,

chasin' wild horses

Chasin' wild horses,

chasin' wild horses
