performed by Waylon Jennings.

Capo on the 2nd fret.

Verse 1:
DD Piano Chord 
                              GG Piano Chord 

The highway she's a hotter than nine times the hell
AA Piano Chord 
                          DD Piano Chord 

The rides are as scarce as the rain
GG Piano Chord 

When your down to your last shuck with nothing to sell
AA Piano Chord 
                      DD Piano Chord 

And too far away from the train

Verse 2:
DD Piano Chord 
                                  GG Piano Chord 

Been a good month of Sunday's and a guitar ago
AA Piano Chord 
                          DD Piano Chord 

Had a tall drink of yesterday's wine
GG Piano Chord 

Left a long string of friends,some sheets in the wind
AA Piano Chord 
                 DD Piano Chord 

And some satisfied woman behind

Chorus:
DD Piano Chord 
                         GG Piano Chord 

Hey ride me down easy Lord,ride me on down
AA Piano Chord 
                         DD Piano Chord 

Leave word in the dust where i lay
GG Piano Chord 

Say i'm easy come,easy go
AA Piano Chord 
                   DD Piano Chord 

Easy to love when i stay

Verse 3:
DD Piano Chord 
                                   GG Piano Chord 

I've put snow on the mountain,raised hell on the hill
AA Piano Chord 
                       DD Piano Chord 

I locked horns with the devil himself
GG Piano Chord 

Been a rodeo fool,a son of a gun
AA Piano Chord 
                        DD Piano Chord 

And a hobo with stars in his crown

Chorus.

DD Piano Chord 
                      GG Piano Chord 

Ride me down easy Lord,ride me on down
