Verse: D G The highway sheʼs a hotter than nine times the hell A D The rides are as scarce as the rain G When your down to your last shuck with nothing to sell A D And too far away from the train D G Been a good month of Sundayʼs and a guitar ago A D Had a tall drink of yesterdayʼs wine G Left a long string of friends,some sheets in the wind A D And some satisfied woman behind Chorus: D G Hey ride me down easy Lord,ride me on down A D Leave word in the dust where i lay G Say iʼm easy come,easy go A D Easy to love when i stay Verse: D G Iʼve put snow on the mountain,raised hell on the hill A D I locked horns with the devil himself G Been a rodeo fool,a son of a gun A D And a hobo with stars in his crown Chorus. D G Ride me down easy Lord,ride me on down
