************** SIX WHITE HORSES ***************
performed by Waylon Jennings.
Verse 1:
E F#m A E
Come here and look through the window Marie
F#m A E
Open up the shutters,tell me what you see
Abm A E
Was that his knock that i heard at the door
F#m D E
Or is it six white horses coming down the road
Verse 2:
E F#m A E
Come here and touch me and say that it's alright
F#m A E
You know that to my eyes the days are as the nights
Abm A E
Read again the letter that tells me where he's gone
F#m D E
To hell with the fighting i want my son home
Verse 3:
E F#m A E
I taught him to fish and i taught him to be strong
F#m A E
I taught him that killing any man was wrong
Abm A E
But tommorrow in battle i'd run to where he stood
F#m D E
If the help of a blind man would do any good
Break (F#).
Verse 4:(a tone higher)
F# Abm B F#
Last night i went to his room for awhile
Abm B F#
I've touched all the things that he used as a child
Bbm B F#
I rocked the cradle where he used to lay
Abm E F#
I found his tin soldiers and threw them away
Verse 5:(idem)
F# Abm B F#
Come here and look through the window Marie
Abm B F#
Open up the shutters,tell me what you see
Bbm B F#
Was that his knock that i heard at the door
Abm E F#
Or is it six white horses coming up the road
