VERSE 1:

Am                   C          Fmaj7        Am 
One more drink tonight as your gray stallion rests
         Fmaj7      Am
Where he lays in the reins
                C                                   G
For all of the speed and the strength he gave


VERSE 2:

One more kiss tonight from some tall stable girl
She’s like grace from the earth
When you’re all tuckered out and tame


VERSE 3:

One more tired thing the gray moon on the rise
When your want from the day
Makes you to curse in your sleep at night


VERSE 4:

One more gift to bring we may well find you laid
Like your steed in his reins
Tangled too tight and too long to fight
