Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]She[Em] rode[G][Em][C][G]
a bay called
[Am]Chesapeake
[C]Stayed on its back for four[G]teen weeks
Rode all the way down to
[Am]New
Orleans
Search[C]in' for her [G]man[C][G]
I [B]was two weeks out of
[Am]Franklin, keep[C]in' it close to the [G]rails
I rode a [B]stallion hard, leavin' [Am]no holes barred,
just [C]missin' the
Birmingham [G]jail
I knew
[B]Katie was stubborn to no [Am]count,
but the [C]kiddin' was crazy in [G]love
She just [B]had to know why I [Am]had to go
And she [C]fit just like a [G]glove[C]
[G]She rode a bay called
[Am]Chesapeake
[C]Stayed on its back for four[G]teen weeks
Rode all the way down to
[Am]New
Orleans
[C]Trackin' down her [G]man[Em][G][Em][C]
[G]She was[B] determined to fin[Am]d me
And [C]I was just plannin' to h[G]ide
But she [B]rode through hell just
so [Am]she could tell me
She [C]needed to be by my [G]side
She [B]never complained
about the ac[Am]tion
When it [C]came down to doin' the [G]job
She could [B]ride with the best
And she was [Am]put to the test
The [C]997 won't rock
[G]We got away on
Ches[Am]apeake
Made
[C]Tijuana in les[G]s than a week
Hidin' in love and [Am]learnin' to speak
[C]South of the [G]borderland
We got away on
[Am]Chesapeake
Made
[C]Tijuana in les[G]s than a week
Ain't goin' back up to
[Am]New
Orleans
Stayin' [C]south of the [G]bor[Em]derlands[C]
