Wild Horses (Rolling Stones)=============================

[lots of versions!]

From: cscsj@lux.latrobe.edu.au ( Junacko)

The original version of this is 3 guitars.

Acoustic 1 ("Nashville tuning"- low 3 strings an octave up)

this is the one which starts the song off, there are no bass

strings which gives it that high sound. After the intro it

mainly plays harmonics

Acoustic 2 (Open G- D G D G B D)

this is the main acoustic throughout the song. If I get some

requests I will put this part down.

Electric 3 (Standard tuning)

this is Mick Taylor's classic backing and superb solo. If I get

_lots_ of requests I might summon the energy to tab the solo, if

I get hundreds I might even tab the whole part.

For now, I will just do CRD. Despite having 3 guitars on the original

recording, this one sounds surprisingly full with just 1 acoustic

(standard tuning) and voice.

Intro:

G Am7 G Gsus Am7 G

Bm G Gsus Bm G Gsus

1. Childhood living is easy to do

Am G C D G Gsus G D Dsus2 D C

Bm Giii Childhood living

Bm Giii

Is easy to do

Am7 Cii The things you wanted,

Gii C6 I brought them for you

Graceless lady,

You know who I am, You know I can't let you, Slide through my hands

Chorus:

Bm Am7 Cii Wild Horses,

Bm Am7 Gii F Ci Couldn't drag me away,

Wild, wild horses, Couldn't drag me away...

I watched you suffer A dull, aching pain Now you decided To show me the same

No sweeping exits

Or off-stage lines, Can make me feel bitter, Or treat you unkind

(Refrain)

I know I dreamed you A sin and a lie, I have my freedom, But I don't have much time

Faith has been broken, Tears must be cried, Let's do some living, After we die...

(refrain)

Here are the chords:

Giii 7 10 9 7 8 7

In the third verse, you can replace the Am7 with an Am9. (Althoughnow that I listen to it, I think the ninth is actually coming fromthe lead guitar. But it still sounds nice to use Am9 for a little

variety, especially with only one guitar)

I would appreciate any suggestions or corrections.

I've fooled with the song some. Not real sure about the exact placement of these chords. Trust your ear.
