[Verse 1]
D                              Em         A              D
We were up before the sunrise, loaded up horses, we were gone
D                                 Em             A             D
Crossed the La Veta pass to that sweet St Luis valley, rolling on
       G                                                              D  Bm
Thats Wolf Creek up ahead 10,000 feet of mountain, we'll be there by noon
                 D                     A                          D
We're hauling Colorado horses down to winter beneath the Arizona moon

[Verse 2]
D                                       Em               A                D
Go straight on to Durango toward Four Corners, that old Ford was making ground
D                                         Em                    A            D
We stretched the horses legs in Teec Nos Pos and watched that desert sun go down
         G                                                         D  Bm
We made camp out in the nations and we listened to the ancestors tunes
                 D                      A                         D
We're hauling Colorado horses down to winter beneath the Arizona moon

[Verse 3]
    Bm                                                                    A
We called the boss in Wickenberg just to let em know when we'd be rolling in
         Bm                                                                 A
Fed the horses, fed ourselves, picked some guitar while the firelight grew dim
          D                                       G                                  D  Bm
Then we passed the bottle around and watched the night time turn to morning way too soon
                 D                      A                         D

[Verse 4]
D                                      Em                A           D
Sing praises to these horses they've hauled a thousand dudes to the hills
D                                       Em               A              D
They'd take us to the rivers where the voice of Mother Nature won't be still
        G                                                             D  Bm
Well I ain't no big time banker but I know exactly what I should be doing
                  D                      A                         D
That's hauling Colorado horses down to winter beneath the Arizona moon
