Gretchen Peters - Prairie In The Sky
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: Em C G Em C G C Em G C
Em7 Em C
I ride a big blue roan
G C
I carry all I own
Em7 Em C
In the pouches of my saddlebag
G C
With my bedroll tied behind
Em7 Em C
There's a prairie in the sky
G C
I'll find it by and by
Em7 Em C
Hills of brown and yellow
G C
To make a soul unwind
INSTRUMENTAL: Em7 Em C G C (2x)
Em7 Em C
Let the music take me home
G C
To where a heart may roam
Em7 Em C
I'll fly across the meadows
G C
Touch the tall grass as I go
Em7 Em C
And let the gentle western wind
G C
Stay with me 'til the end
Em7 Em C
Beside me 'til the day is done
G C
And the sun is sinking low
INSTRUMENTAL: Em7 Em C G C (2x)
Em7 Em C
Leave the ponies to run free
G C
Far as the eye can see
Em7 Em C
I'd ride the range forever
G C
To see them once again
Em7 Em C
Let the wild flying things
G C
Soar above me on their wings
Em7 Em C
And the stars fill up the night sky
G C
And the moon light up the plains
INTERLUDE:
Em7 Em C G C Em7 Em C G C
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Em7 Em C
I ride a big blue roan
G C
I carry all I own
Em7 Em C
In the pouches of my saddlebag
