Wild Ride – Dwight Yoakam (from "This Time" -1994)

Intro: A

A
I walked in, there sat Slim
Cleaning up his memory with some sapphire gin.
      E			A     E		A	
Mr. Paine grabbed my arm, pulled me aside
           D                            E
And said, “Kid, are you ready for the wild ride?”

A
I looked up, there she stood; I said, “If you didn’t
look so great, I’d say you look good.”
    E		A	  E	 A
She took her hand, ran it up my thigh,
         D                             E
And said, “Cowboy, you ready for the wild ride?”

Chorus: E  			A
	Come on now, Junior, take the wild ride

	See, can you make it on the wild ride
				    E
	Don’t try no shakin’ on the wild ride
					     A
	`Cause things start breakin’ on the wild ride

A
Layin’ on the highway, I saw my mind
In tiny little pieces thrown from side to side.
      E		A	  E		A	
My heart was shattered along with my pride 
   D                              E
Guess you can’t keep ‘em on the wild ride

(Chorus + Solo)

A
I was crawlin’ cross the floor, I was trying to leave;

When I felt something tuggin’ what was left of my
sleeve
	  E	A	     E		   A
I heard a little voice with a gold-plated vibe
       D                        E
Say I bought a ticket for the wild ride

(Chorus 2X then to Outro)

Outro:   A
	Come on, come on; take me on the wild ride

	See can you make me on the wild ride.
					E
	Come on and shake me on the wild ride.
					A
	You might just break me on the wild ride.
