Mustang Ridge

C                       G
I'm never going back to Mustang Ridge
      Em                     D  C
If I ever make it out alive
C               G
If you don't see me by the rising sun
        D         C          D
You know I had to take the dive
  C                      G
When the hounds are running down Oso Creek
        Em           D   C
Like Arabs on the track
          C                         G
I'll be halfway across the southern horn
       D          C          D
Too late for turning back
        C               Em    D     C
And if I die tonight on the Hays Street Bridge
          C                 G   D       G
I ain't never going back to Mustang Ridge

[Verse 1]
G                               C
I got my knee on the wheel and I'm feeling free
G                 C
With my hobnail on the gas
  G                     D
I just crossed over the county line
C                   G
Tryna make it up to Wild Rose Pass
G                       C
Now the radio's saying all hell broke loose
        G                                         C
This morning at the Lockhart Jail
        G                       D
Now I'm flying like an angel on Dead Man's Run
        C                 G
I got the devil riding on my tail

Yeah, I do

[Chorus]
C                       G
I'm never going back to Mustang Ridge
      Em                     D  C
If I ever make it out alive
C               G
If you don't see me by the rising sun
        D                 C           D
You know I had to take the dive
  C                      G
When the hounds are running down Oso Creek
        Em           D   C
Like Arabs on the track
          C                         G
I'll be halfway across the southern horn
       D          C          D
Too late for turning back
        C               Em    D     C
And if I die tonight on the Hays Street Bridge
          C                 G   D       G
I ain't never going back to Mustang Ridge

[Verse 2]
G                                      C
And did you hear they found an old burned-out car
G                C
Up in the Davis Hills?
G                    D
Sheriff said on the evenin' news
C                            G
"Nobody found but they're looking still"
G                         C
Now a woman's life ain't just a list
G                               C
Of the worst things she has done
G                    D
I'll leave you now with the heart of stone
C                        G
Sometimes a past is hard to outrun

[Chorus]
C                       G
I'm never going back to Mustang Ridge
      Em                     D  C
If I ever make it out alive
C               G
If you don't see me by the rising sun
        D                 C           D
You know I had to take the dive
  C                      G
When the hounds are running down Oso Creek
        Em           D   C
Like Arabs on the track
          C                         G
I'll be halfway across the southern horn
       D          C          D
Too late for turning back
        C               Em     D     C
And if I die tonight on the Hays Street Bridge
          C                 G   D       G
I ain't never going back to Mustang Ridge
        C               Em     D     C
And if I die tonight on the Hays Street Bridge
          C                 G   D       G
I ain't never going back to Mustang Ridge
