[Verse 1]
C
Indian summer..Abilene,
C
You were new in town I was nineteen
               G
and the sparks flew
C
They called us crazy behind our backs
C
"Romantic fools" We just let them laugh
G
Because we knew,
            Bm   Em
It may be a long shot
           C              G
We may be lonely down the line
                  Bm  Em
But love knows no reason
Am          Bm               C  D6
And I won't let them make up my mind

[Chorus]
Em         D              C           G
My love is riding on this dark horse, baby
C                           Em    D
My heart is sayin' it's the lucky one
Em            C                           G
And it's true color's gonna shine through someday
      C   G     C        D          C    G
If we let this, Let this dark horse run

[Verse 2]
C
Stars are brighter in a desert sky
C
No need to wonder or justify
G
Where this will lead
C
I wear your locket our picture's inside
C
Inscr i ption says, "The joy's in the ride"
G
And I believe
             Bm  Em
Something so sacred
             C                  G
Is something worth this kind of fight
                    Bm  Em
Cause love knows no patience
Am                        Bm       C       D6
You can't please everyone all the time

[Chorus]
Em         D              C           G
My love is riding on this dark horse, baby
C                           Em    D
My heart is sayin' it's the lucky one
Em            C                           G
And it's true color's gonna shine through someday
      C   G     C        D          C
If we let this, Let this dark horse run
