Iron Horse by Mean Mary
Iron Horse
Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo: 3rd fret
[Intro]
Am Em Am Em Am
[Verse 1]
We rode the plains as lovers do
Em Am
We raced beneath the summer sun
My dusky eyes met his so blue
Em Am
Our soaring spirits breathed as one
[Verse 2]
We blazed our love across the sky
Em Am
Surrendered to its ancient force
Until the day he said goodbye
Em Am
And climbed aboard the Iron horse
[Chorus]
G
I heard its challenge, loud and shrill
Em Am
As we chased it up the Great Divide
G
But though my steed had the stronger will
Em N.C. Am
The iron horse had the longer stride
[Instrumental]
Am Em Am Em Am Em Am G Am G Em Am Em Am
[Verse 3]
Its whistle cut me like a blade
Em Am
I loathed its screaming, smoky cry
How could he leave his Indian maid?
Em Am
I’ll ride like wind and ask him why
[Verse 4]
Astride my fearless painted dun
Em Am
I chose my pace and set my course
To catch this demon on the run
Em Am
My steed against this iron horse
[Chorus]
G
I heard its challenge, loud and shrill
Em Am
As we chased it up the Great Divide
G
But though my steed had the stronger will
Em N.C. Am
The iron horse had the longer stride
[Instrumental]
Am Em Am Em Am Em Am G Am G Em Am Em Am
[Chorus]
G
It roared its challenge loud and shrill
Em Am
As it laboured up the Great Divide
G
Though I had the stronger will
Em N.C. Am
The iron horse had the longer stride
[Verse 5]
Through the thunder of its blare
Em Am
I yelled my fury at the beast
Wasted words lost in the air
Em Am
As it roared its way forever east
And the iron horse’s speed increased
