The rider Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Riding, riding fast at midnight
Comes a horseman o 'er the [D]plain
[C]Pressing on to find a [G]shelter
[D]From the icy wind and [G]rain
The night, the night was black,
the wind blew stronger
Winter's rage can freeze
the blood with [D]cold
And [C]as he rides along, he [G]wonders
[D]If he can outrace the blinding [G]snow
So [C]cold and weary of the [G]saddle, [C]as he rides he races with the [D]wind,
[C]hoping that the distant
The sunlight be[G]fore him is [D]someone
who will let a stranger [G]in
The wind, its endless rage, grew wilder
No one could hear him knocking at the [D]door
He [C]called to them, the howling wind grew [G]wilder,
his [D]voice could not be heard above the [G]roar.
The night, the night was black,
the wind blew stronger,
Winter's rage can freeze
the blood with [D]cold
And [C]with the morning light
they [G]found him
[D]Underneath the mountain of [G]snow
So [C]cold and weary of the [G]saddle
[C]When he felt the warmth
that heaven [D]sent
He's [C]resting now forever in the [G]sunshine
The an[D]gels must have let the stranger [G]in
You
