This is one of my very favorite songs, so here goes (from my memory, so it might not be correct, but it'll be pretty close):

WILDFIRE
(Michael Martin Murphey)

(Music)

Well she came from Yellow Mountain;
On a dark, flat land she rides...
On a pony she named Wildfire
With a whirlwind by her side,
On a cold Nebraska night.

(Music)

Well they say she died one winter,
When there came an early frost;
And the pony she named Wildfire
Busted down his stall...
In a blizzard he was lost.

She ran callin' "Wildfire!"
She ran callin' "Wildfire!"
She ran callin' "Wildfire!"

By the dark of the moon I planted,
But there came an early snow;
S'been a hoot owl howlin' by my window now
For six nights in a row...
She's coming to me, I know...
And on Wildfire we're both gonna go.

We'll be ridin' Wildfire,
We'll be ridin' Wildfire,
We'll be ridin' Wildfire.

S'on Wildfire, we're gonna ride,
We're gonna leave some fire behind;
Get these hard times right on out of our lives...
We'll be ridin' Wildfire!

(Music fade out)

The chords for this are all over the internet (Chordie, Cowboy Lyrics, etc.) but they are in Emaj7 and G#m which are not comfortable to play on guitar. Does anyone have easier chords for this? Can you email me at [e-mail].

Thanks,
Diane
