(CAPO 1st Fret)
Verse 1.
D
There?s this place we?re gonna ride
                               Bm
Up where the rimrod meets the night
Em
We?ll go hand in hand
                    Em7          A
Ridin? through the purple star light
                       D
And the coyote on the wind
                          Bm
Sends his lonely lover?s call
                       Em
We?ll hold each other close
         G           D
In the wonder of it all

Verse 2.
D
The golden west has come and gone
                       Bm
Right before our very eyes
Em
But they will never count the stars
               Em7             A
And they will never fence the skies
                      D
All I know is I love you
                     Bm
And I won?t let you fall
                             Em
We?re rollin? down the Milky Way
           G           D        (D one down stroke)
Into the wonder of it all

Bridge:
                       F#m
Life gets harder every day
      G                     D
And sometimes it seems the dream almost dies
                     F#m
But love will find a way
         G                Em
It will show us the way through the canyons of the stars
           Em7            A      (slide CAPO to 2nd Fret)
And the endless midnight sky

Verse 3.
A                         D
Come on girl we?re gonna ride
                            Bm
Where the rimrod meets the night
Em
We?ll go hand in hand
                    Em7         A
Ridin? through the purple starlight
                       D
And the coyote on the wind
                          Bm
Sends his lonely lover?s call
                       Em
We?ll hold each other close
         G           D
In the wonder of it all
B                      Em
We?ll hold each other close
         Gm          D    G      A      D
In the wonder of it all
