Let's go place some money on the order of the horses 
                                                         Csus4
Break the ribbon of that famous finish line 
                F#m
And we'll gather up our stash babe
Am
Find a little ranch babe
                  G                              C
And buy a lonely little pony to ride

Well I know I was lucky when the needle came and stuck me 
                                                                  Csus4
This porcupine came and poked my cactus hide 
                F#m
So let me finish what I start babe 
Am
Open up your heart babe 
             G                                                 C
I saw a land of milk and honey in your mind

         F                             Am                      C
Our flesh and blood has found me in your arms again
                                  Csus4                         G
See the whisper of the wind has found your hair again
                           C                          F#m                  F                     
And though my heart said give me refuge in your dignity my dear
         C                            G                      C
All I could do was put a seashell to your ear

         F                             Am                      C
Our flesh and blood has found me in your arms again
                                  Csus4                         G
See the whisper of the wind has found your hair again
                           C                          F#m                  F                     
And though my heart said give me refuge in your dignity my dear
         C                            G                      C
All I could do was put a seashell to your ear
