Fallen Horses by Smash Mouth
Fallen Horses
D
A long summers day
Am
stretching out the cold
D
searching for the answers
Am
and some say i'm not alone
Em G
could you tell me
D
where i might find
Em G D
fallen horses their spirits they fly
D
blinded by the whiteness
Am
staring at the sun
D
i'm wishing that i had wings
Am
so that i could become one
Em G
would you help me
D
if i wanted to die
Em G F#
i could ride off with horses tonight
D Am
tell me why why oh why
D Am
i said why why oh why
now that i've arrived here
i know i'm not alone
all my friend among me
tell me welcome home
but could you tell me
where i might find
the one i'm looking for
cause here wings have arrived
D Am
tell me why why oh why
D Am
i said why why oh why

Outro:
Same as break.
A long summers day stetching out the cold
Searching for the answers and some say I'm not alone
Could you tell me where I might find fallen horses their spirits they fly
Blinded by the whiteness staring at the sun
I'm wishing that I had wings so that I could become one
Would you help me if I wanted to die I could ride off with horses tonight
Tell me why
Why oh why
I said why
Why oh why
Now that I've arrived here I know I'm not alone
All my friends among me tell me welcome home
But could you tell me where I might find the one I'm
looking for cause her wings have arrived
[Repeat Chorus]
