intro: C , G , D , G  


verse: 
C          G 
i tried to warn myself 
C               G 
but i wouldn't listen 
C            G 
i could not hide from her 
      D 
her intentions 
C            G 
i could not stop myself 
D              Em 
i knew it was wrong 
           C               G 
but some things they just pull you 
         D      G 
to the great unknown 
C             G           C        G  
she is like a wild horse nobody's ridden 
C             G 
then when she came to me 
D  
i was ready, she was willin' 
        C        G 
then i took her out 
D                 Em 
straight into the sun 
       C        G                 D        G 
and i took her down to where the wild ones run 

(outro only) and i always remember where the wild ones run  

verse: 

well she trembled when i touched her 

and her heart beat so wild 

and i watched how she faded 

into a woman from a child 

and when she held onto me 

i could tell she didn't know 

that the heat fades fast  

and the heart breaks slow 

(Chorus) 

bridge: 
Em           C           G        D 
she came to view me the same old way 
Em                      C              
fills her eyes up with questions 
       G               D 
i got answers i can't say 
Em               C            G          D 
and everytime i tell her what i already know 
C                      G 
is that you can't come back 
                D        G                
from where the wild ones go 

(Chorus)
