440 Horses Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Four hundred forty horses
[F]Driving wheels of this [C]chrome and steel
Like a [Am]freight train through the night
My [F]pony's lead and my [C]eyes bright red
My [Am]knuckles showing white
My [F]hair is slick with [C]oil
And my [Am]breath blows gasoline
Well I'm a [F]smokin'
flaming [C]death machine
And the [G]lonely lights of [C]an
other lonely [F]time
[G]Lonely highway
I [C]keep on rushing [F]down
There's a hundred [Dm]miles
until I sleep to[F]night
Well I got to put the hammer [Am]down
If Purgatory angels [F]sat upon my left [C]side
With the [Am]devil on my right
[F]Black as [Am]coal
[F]Black [C]is my soul
I [Am]ride on through the night
[F]Into the waiting arm[C]s
Of my [Am]cryin' blushing bride
Too [F]fast to live but too [C]young to die
And the [G]lonely lights of an
[C]other lonely [F]time
[G]Lonely highway
I [C]keep on rushin' [F]down
And there's [Bb]a hundred mi[Dm]les
until I sleep to[F]night
Well I got to put the hammer [Am]down[F][C][Am][F][Am][C]

Four hundred forty horses
[F]Drive the wheels of this [C]chrome and steel
Like a [Am]freight train through the night
My [F]pony's lead and my [C]eyes bright red
My [Am]knuckles showing white
My [F]hair is slick with [C]oil
And my [Am]breath blows gasoline
Well I'm a [F]smokin'

And the [G]lonely lights of
[C]another lonely [F]time
[G]Lonely highway
I [C]keep on rush[F]in' on
And there's a hundred [Dm]miles
until I sleep to[F]night
Well I got to put the hammer [Am]down
Put the hammer down
Put the hammer down
Put the hammer down
There's a hundred miles
until I sleep tonight

[Outro 1]
Put the hammer down
