[Intro]
Am Em Am Em Am Em Am Em
[Verse 1]
Am Em Am Em
You had your chance to show affection
Am Em Am Em
You had your chance to give me more
Am Em Am Em
And now that she's found new direction
Ebm Dm E E
You make your way to my back door
[Verse 2]
Am Em Am Em
What makes you think the whole world wants you
Am Em Am Em
Give steel a kiss and it will bend
Am Em Am Em
The flesh is weak, but when it all is said and done
Ebm Dm Dm Esus E
The spirit's all that's left in the end
[Chorus]

I do not want the dirt from your shoes or from the hooves
Am Em Am Em Am Em Am Em

[Verse 3]
Am Em Am Em
The way I see it, there are few things left
Am Em Am Em
To hold on to and keep your head, yeah
Am Em Am Em
And it's your sense of humor and integrity
Ebm Dm Dm Esus E
There's nothing funny about what's being said
[Verse 4]
Am Em Am Em
And there was a day when I would let myself be trampled
Am Em Am Em Am Em
As long as it was done by you
Am Em Am
(as long as it was done by you) Em
Am Em Am Em
But I took so much abuse, now I've had ample
Ebm Dm Dm Esus E
There's no way that you'll break through

Go on and ride out of my sight..........sight

You let the wild wind blow your course
Am Em
(wild wind blow your course)
