IF I JUST HAD A HORSE
Dave Stamey
[verse 1]
C7 G6
I wish I had a horse, a big white flashy horse
C7 G6
I wouldn’t be the kind of guy that I appear to be
C7
Well, I’d be different, I’d be better
G6 E7
A hero right down to the letter
A6 D7
And all them pretty women would be after me
[chorus 1]
D7 C#7 C7
Cause I’d be Tom Mix, be the Lone Ranger
G6
I’d be John Wayne, I’d be the Tall Dark Stranger
C7 G6
I could ride in to danger, cause I’d be brave of course
C7
People would look up to me
G6 E7
Cause I’d be somethin’ that they could aspire to be
A7 D7 G6
And it would all be possible, if I just had a horse
[verse 2]
C7 G6
And if I had a hat, a ten gallon Stetson hat
C7 G6
I would look so sharp, all my friends would be amazed
C7
Cause I could tip it to the ladies
G6 E7
My nose would always be shady
A6 D7
And underneath the brim I’d have a Gary Cooper gaze
[chorus 2]
C7
And I’d be Tom Mix, I’d be the Lone Ranger
G6
I’d be Lash LaRue, I’d be the Tall Dark Stranger
C7 G6
I could save any widow’s ranch, ‘bout eight seconds flat
C7
People would look up to me
G6 E7
Cause I’d be somethin’ they could aspire to be
A6 D7 G6
And this would all be possible, if I just had a hat
[turn around]
C7
Clothes and trappins’ don’t make a man
G6
I know that’s the way it’s always gonna to be
C7
But they can bring out the hero in side
A6 D7
But then that’s good enough for me
[verse 3]
C7 G6
But if I had some boots, they’d go so well with my buckskin suit
C7 G6
I could walk in places I’d never ever dared to go
C7
With my firm and manly stride
G6 E7
Mean guys would just step aside
A6 D7
And I’d be admired by folks I don’t even know
[chorus 3]
C7
And I’d be Gene Autry, I’d be Roy Rogers
G6
I’d have a side kick who’s an old codger
C7 G6
I could chase down robbers and I could recover the loot
C7
People would look up to me
G6 E7
Cause I’d be somethin’ that they could aspire to be
A6 D7 G6
And this could all be possible, if I just had some boots
[final chorus]
C7
Cause I’d be Tom Mix, I’d be the Lone Ranger
G6
I’d be John Wayne, I’d be the Tall Dark Stranger
C7 G6
I could ride into danger, cause I’d be brave of course
C7
People would look up to me
G6 E7
Cause I’d be somethin’ that they could aspire to be
A6 D7 E7
And it would all be possible, if I just had a horse
