Rolling Stones - Wild Horses 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. Intro: G Am7 G Gsus Am7 G Bm G Gsus Bm G Gsus 1.

I watched you suffer a dull aching pain Now you've decided to show me the same No sweeping exits or off-stage lines Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind Ch. Wild horses couldn't drag me away C(VIII) Wild wild horses couldn't drag me away [guitar break] Fsus2(VIII) C(VIII) x 3 D G 3. I know I've 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'll die Ch. Wild horses couldn't drag me away Wild wild horses we'll ride them some day.

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) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: mvm@merrimac.NoSubdomain.NoDomain (Mike Murphy) I've fooled with the song some. Not real sure about the exact placement of these chords. Trust your ear. WILD HORSES ----------- G Bm G Bm G Gsus4 G Childhood living is easy to do. Am G C D G7 D G The things that you wanted, I bought them for you. Bm G Bm G Graceless lady, you know who I am; Am C D G D You know I can't let you slide through my hands.
