Black Baldy Stallion Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][Am][D][Am]
[G][Em]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Slidin' down the
canyon on the [D]Black Baldy Stallion
Through the [Am]rocks and the ridges
of [C]the cold dark night
[Em]Shinin' like a diamond from the [D]belt of Orion
Is it [Am]your imagination, is the [C]end in sight

[Verse 2]
From the [Em]top of the mountain
to the [D]edge of the water
You can [Am]hear her singin' softly
so [C]you spring to the order
Of [Em]the song she was singin'
[D]the first time you saw her
The [Am]years melt away as you [C]ride
toward the [D]border[G]

[Verse 3]
Such a [D]long, long way [Am]to ride[C][D][G]
Just to [D]hear her say your [Am]name[C][D][G]
When you [D]reach the other
[Am]side[C][D][C]
You won't [D]leave her again
[G]

[Verse 4]
It's a [Em]resonating wonder how
you've [D]never knuckled under
To the [Am]Elders of the village on that
[C]early Easter mornin'
'Cause you [Em]never broke your promises
and [D]loving her is all there is
[Am]Ridin' through the river [C]in
the fiery [D]dawn[G]in'

[Verse 5]
Such a [D]long, long way to [Am]ride
(Still you [C]have to [D]carry [G]on)
Just to [D]hear her say your [Am]name[C][D][G]
When you [D]reach the other
[Am]side
(Where she [C]waits to [D]take [C]you home)
You won't [D]leave her again

[Interlude 1]

[C][D][G]

[Verse 6]
[Em](Guitar)
Sittin' in the cafe on the
[D]corner of the plaza
She's [Am]openin' the letter
[C]you could not deliver
As the [Em]Black Baldy [D]Stallion
riderlessly passes
[Am]Gleamin' in the sun drippin'
[C]water from the [D]river[G]

[Verse 7]
Such a [D]long, long way to [Am]ride
(Still you [C]have to [D]carry [G]on)
Just to [D]hear her say your [Am]name[C][D][G]
When you [D]reach the other
[Am]side
(Where she [C]waits to [D]take [C]you home)
You won't [D]leave her [G]again[D]

[Verse 8]
...a [D]long, long way to [Am]ride
(Still you [C]have to [D]carry [G]on)[D]
Just to hear her say your [Am]name
(From the [C]twilight [D]to [G]the dawn)
When [D]you reach the other
[Am]side
(Where she [C]waits to [D]take [C]you home)
You won't [D]leave her again
[G]

[Verse 9]
[C]
You won't [D]leave her again
[G]
