[lots of versions!

From: cscsj@lux.latrobe.edu.au ( Junacko)

The original version of this is 3 guitars.

Acoustic 1 ("Nashville tuning"- low 3 strings an octave up)

this is the one which starts the song off, there are no bass

strings which gives it that high sound. After the intro it

mainly plays harmonics

Acoustic 2 (Open G- D G D G B D)

this is the main acoustic throughout the song. If I get some

requests I will put this part down.

Electric 3 (Standard tuning)

this is Mick Taylor's classic backing and superb solo. If I get

_lots_ of requests I might summon the energy to tab the solo, if

I get hundreds I might even tab the whole part.

For now, I will just do CRD. Despite having 3 guitars on the original

recording, this one sounds surprisingly full with just 1 acoustic

(standard tuning) and voice.

Faith has been broken, tears must be cried

Let's do some living, after we'll die

Ch. Wild horses couldn't drag me away

Wild wild horses we'll ride them some day.

Intro:

Gi Am7 Gi Am7 Gi

Verse:

Bm Giii
Childhood living

Bm Giii
Is easy to do

Am7 Cii
The things you wanted,

Gii C6
I brought them for you

Graceless lady,
 You know who I am,
You know I can't let you,
Slide through my hands

Chorus:

Bm Am7 Cii
Wild Horses,

Bm Am7 Gii F Ci
Couldn't drag me away,

Wild, wild horses,

Couldn't drag me away...

I watched you suffer

A dull, aching pain
Now you decided
To show me the same

No sweeping exits
Or off-stage lines,
Can make me feel bitter,
Or treat you unkind

(Refrain)

I know I dreamed you

A sin and a lie,
I have my freedom,
But I don't have much time

Faith has been broken,

Tears must be cried,
Let's do some living,
After we die...

(refrain)

Here are the chords:

Gi 320003 Am7 575555 Bm 799777

Gii 355433 Cii 875558 F 133211
C6 x35555 Am9 575587 Ci x32010

Giii 7 10 9 7 8 7

In the third verse, you can replace the Am7 with an Am9. (Although
now that I listen to it, I think the ninth is actually coming from
the lead guitar. But it still sounds nice to use Am9 for a little
variety, especially with only one guitar)

I would appreciate any suggestions or corrections.

I've fooled with the song some. Not real sure about the exact
placement of these chords. Trust your ear.
