Oh, they say she died one winter When there came an early frost And the pony she named Wildfire Busted down its stall, In a blizzard she was lost. Amaj7 Abm She ran calling Wild---fire, Amaj7 Abm Calling Wild---fire, Amaj7 Abm F#m B Amaj7 (intro lick) Calling Wi----i----ld----fi----i----re. E Emaj7 F#m By the dark of the moon I planted E Emaj7 F#m But there came an early snow. Amaj7 Abm Been a hoot owl howlin' outside my window now, Amaj7 Abm For six nights in a row. F#m Abm She's comin' for me, I know F#m Abm And on Wildfire we're both gonna go. We'll be ridin' Wildfire, Ridin' Wildfire, We'll be ridin' Wildfire On Wildfire we're gonna ride, Gonna leave sodbustin' behind. Get these hard times right on out of our minds, Ridin' Wildfire. Here's how I play the chords. Your mileage may vary.
