C#5 Ab5
Every time I turn around, the man?s trying to get me down
A5 E5
I just can?t see your face
C#5 Ab5
I?m blinded by the sun, living on the run
A5 E5
And I can?t remember this place
Chorus:
B5 A5 E5 F#5 Ab5 E5
Won?t you take me to the other side? let me go when I?m high
B5 A5 E5 F#5 Ab5 E5
Won?t you take me to the other side, pretty mama, on the wind won?t you let me ride
C#5 Ab5
I better slow down before I wreck, driving on the river?s edge
A5 E5
My mama says to come back home
C#5 Ab5
But I can?t keep running fast, burning up the years grass
A5 E5
On uncle Sam?s dirt road
Chorus:
B5 A5 E5 F#5 Ab5 E5
Won?t you take me to the other side? let me go when I?m high
B5 A5 E5 F#5 Ab5 E5
Won?t you take me to the other side, pretty mama, on the wind won?t you let me ride

Well the Cowboy?s your given name, nothing ever stays the same

It?s time to put the hammer down
