E Emaj7 F#m
She comes down from Yellow Mountain
E Emaj7 F#m
On a dark, flat land she rides
Amaj7 Abm
On a pony she named Wildfire
Amaj7 Abm
Whirlwind by her side
F#m Abm (intro lick)
On a cold Nebraska night.
Oh, they say she died one winter
When there came an early frost
And the pony she named Wildfire
Busted down its stall,
In a blizzard she was lost.
Amaj7 Abm
She ran calling Wild---fire,
Amaj7 Abm
Calling Wild---fire,
Amaj7 Abm F#m B Amaj7 (intro lick)
Calling Wi----i----ld----fi----i----re.
E Emaj7 F#m
By the dark of the moon I planted
E Emaj7 F#m
But there came an early snow.
Amaj7 Abm
Been a hoot owl howlin' outside my window now,
Amaj7 Abm
For six nights in a row.
F#m Abm
She's comin' for me, I know
F#m Abm
And on Wildfire we're both gonna go.
We'll be ridin' Wildfire,
Ridin' Wildfire,
We'll be ridin' Wildfire
On Wildfire we're gonna ride,
Gonna leave sodbustin' behind.
Get these hard times right on out of our minds,
Ridin' Wildfire.
Here's how I play the chords. Your mileage may vary.
