[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Dm
Try to conjure up a night
G
Of jessamine upon the air
C
I'm seventeen and in a car
F
Ready to ride anywhere
Dm7
This summer night sticks to my skin
    G
And beer's gone to my head
C
My arm hangs out the window
      F                        Dm
And I can't hear what you just said
 
 
[Chorus]
         G     C
Over the radio
        F         Dm7
Wild, wild horses
                  G         C
Everything you'll ever know
          F
Is in the choruses
 
 
[Verse 2]
Dm7
Everything that made you whole
G
Everything that broke your heart
C
Whatever called you by your soul
    F
And piece by piece took you apart
Dm7
Every spark you ever chased
G
All the faith love robbed you of
C
Every light the dark erased
F                     Dm7
Every cause that gave you up
 
 
[Chorus]
     G            C
Turn on the radio
        F         Dm7
Wild, wild horses
             G         C
Everwhere we'd ever go
          F
Is in the choruses
 
 
[Bridge]
                Bb
Standing on the porch tonight
F
All I hear is a distant car
C
Watching the fading light
G
Between the dirt and the stars
Bb
Between the rough and smooth
        F
And the easy and the hard
Am
The lonely sound of loneliness
       G                   Dm
That's shaped just like my heart
 
 
[Interlude]
G  C  F
Dm7  G  C  F
 
 
[Verse 3]
Dm
Years will pass before we turn
G
To face the place where we come from
C                         F
Years will pass before we learn
F
What time denies to everyone
Dm
If we're lucky ghosts and prayers
G
Are company, not enemies
C
I time travel straight back there
F                        Dm
You were singing back to me
 
 
[Chorus]
           G         C
Along with the radio
        F         Dm
Wild, wild horses
                 G         C
Everything we'll ever know
          F       Dm
Is in the choruses
         G     C
Over the radio
        F         Dm
Wild, wild horses
                 G       C
Everywhere we'll ever go
          F        C
Is in the choruses
