Buckskin Stallion Blues
Townes Van Zandt

A                   D          A
I heard you sing in tongues of silver
A                    E      A
I heard you cry on a summer storm
A                    D            A
I loved you, but you did not know it
A                          E  A
So I don't think about you anymore
D                      A
Now you're gone, and I can't believe it
A                          E  A
So I don't think about you anymore

A                      D     A
If three and four were seven only
A                      E       A
Where would that leave one and two
A                  D        A
If love can be and still be lonely
A                     E       A
Where does that leave me and you?
D                   A
Time there was, and time there will be
A                     E       A
Where does that leave me and you?

A          D        A
If I had a buckskin stallion
A                     E    A
I'd tame him down and ride away
A          D      A
If I had a flyin' schooner
A                 E        A
I'd sail into the light of day
D             A
If I had your love forever
A             E        A
Sail into the light of day

A   D   A     A   E   A

D                A
Pretty songs and pretty places
A                E     A
Places that I've never seen
D                A
Pretty songs and pretty faces
A                  E        A
Tell me what their laughter means
D                      A
Some look like they'll cry forever
A                  E        A
Tell me what their laughter means

D          A
If I had a buckskin stallion
A                     E    A
I'd tame him down and ride away
D           A
If I had a golden galleon
A                 E        A
I'd sail into the light of day
D             A
If I had your love forever
A             E        A
Sail into the light of day
