Buckskin Stallion Blues by Townes Van Zandt




         Buckskin Stallion Blues






G                   C          G
I heard her sing in tongues of silver
G           D                G
I heard her cry on a summer storm
             C               G
I loved her, but she did not know it
           D                  G
So I don't think about her anymore
C                             G
Now she's gone, and I can't believe it
                  D        G
So I don't think about her anymore


G                      C     G
If three and four were seven only
                       D       G
Where would that leave one and two
                   C        G
If love can be and still be lonely
                      D      G
Where does that leave me and you?
C                              G
Time there was, and time there will be
                      D      G
Where does that leave me and you?


G          C        G
If I had a buckskin stallion
                      D    G
I'd tame him down and ride away
           C      G
If I had a flyin' schooner
                  D        G
I'd sail into the light of day
C                  G
If I had your love forever
              D        G
Sail into the light of day

G                C      G
Pretty songs and pretty places
                 D     G
Places that I've never seen
                 C      G
Pretty songs and pretty faces
                   D        G
Tell me what their laughter means
C                          G
Some look like they'll cry forever
                   D        G
Tell me what their laughter means

G          C        G
If I had a buckskin stallion
                      D    G
I'd tame him down and ride away
           C      G
If I had a golden galleon
                  D        G
I'd sail into the light of day
C                  G
If I had your love forever
              D        G
Sail into the light of day

version 2










Capo: 2nd fret

...A                D          A
I heard her sing in tongues of silver
                     D      A
I heard her cry on a summer storm
                    D       A
I loved her but she did not know it
                           E  A
So I don't think about her anymore

 D                              A
   Now she's gone and I can't believe it
                              E  A
   So I don't think about her anymore

If three and four was seven only
Where does that leave one and two
If love can be and still be lonely
Where does that leave me and you

   Time there was and time there will be
   Where does that leave me and you

If I had a buckskin stallion
I'd tame him down and ride away
If I had a flyin' schooner
I'd sail into the light of day

   If I had your love forever 
   Sail into the light of day

   Pretty songs and pretty faces
   Faces that I've never seen
   Pretty songs and pretty faces
   Tell me what their laughter means
   Some look like they'll cry forever
   Tell me what their laughter means

If I had a buckskin stallion
I'd tame him down and ride away
If I had a golden galleon
I'd sail into the light of day

   If I had your love forever
   Sail into the light of day
