Chasin’ Wild Horses

Guess it was somethin' I shouldn't have done Guess I regret it now Ever since I was a kid Tryin' to keep my temper down is like Chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses Chasin' wild horses Left my home, left my friends I didn't say goodbye I contract out to the BLM Up on the Montana line Chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses We're out before sunup In after sundown There's two men in the chopper Two under saddle on the ground In the evenings we'd hop in the pickup Head into town for a drink Make sure I work 'til I'm so damn tired Way too tired to think You lose track of time It's all just storms blowin' through You come rollin' 'cross my mind Your hair flashin' in the blue Like wild horses, just like wild horses Just like wild horses Fingernail moon in a twilight sky Ridin' high grass of the switchback I shout your name into the canyon The echo throws it back The winter snow whites out the plains 'Til it can turn me blind The only thing up here I've found Is tryin' to get you off my mind Chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses Chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses
