Ride by Prefab Sprout 



 
                               Ride





Tuning: Standard

The changes in the verses are actually the same as in intro and solo. 
I still chose to name them differently to indicate the different
voicings when playing alone.

  1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +  1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +  1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +  1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +

CHORDS/SPECIAL VOICINGS

Use the voicings on the higher frets to emphasize the riff-like character
of these parts. The lower voicings sound good in the verses, because they
do not detract from the singing.

INTRO
| D/A C/A | C/A | C(add9)/A | % |
| Bm/A | Bm/A D/A | C/A | C/A D/A |


VERSE
  D/A   Am7             A7sus4
I look around me, and I see
      D6/A                      D/A        Am7
Folks leading more constructive lives than me

D/A         Am7          A7sus4
They don't do this for reward,
         D6/A                     D/A      Am7
They are walking in the footsteps of their Lord

    D/A     Am7                  A7sus4
And for themselves, they make no claims
         D6/A                     D/A        Am7
They may die without the world knowing their names


CHORUS
    D         Em    D
But they will ride, ride,
Cmaj7                     D
Home to Jesus, heads held high,

          Em    D
They will ride, ride,
Cmaj7                     D
Home to Jesus, heads held high,

          Em    D
They will ride, ride,
Cmaj7
Home to Jesus


VERSE 
D/A       Am7          A7sus4
Some good people, will deny
   D6/A                           D/A       Am7
Anything that they can't see with their own eye

D/A        Am7            A7sus4
They don't walk, in God's light,
          D6/A                   D/A        Am7
They just walk the way they do because it's right


CHORUS
    D         Em    D
And they will ride, ride,
Cmaj7                     D
Home to Jesus, heads held high,

          Em    D
They will ride, ride,
Cmaj7                     D
Home to Jesus, heads held high,

          Em    D
They will ride, ride,
Cmaj7
Home to Jesus

People hear me, who can know (who can know)
       D6/A                           D/A    Am7
If our time on Earth's the soundcheck or the show?

D/A   Am7                      A7sus4
Ask a good man, and there's no doubt
           D6/A                    D/A     Am7
He’ll have too much on his mind to work it out


CHORUS
    D       Em    D
But he will ride, ride,
Cmaj7                    D
Home to Jesus, head held high,

        Em    D
He will ride, ride,
Cmaj7                    D
Home to Jesus, head held high,

        Em    D
He will ride, ride,
Cmaj7                    D
Home to Jesus, head held high,

        Em    D
He will ride, ride,
