Townes Van Zandt - Buckskin Stallion Blues

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
