Verse 1 (Am Dm Am x 2 / Em Dm Am)
Am
I've got a long grey mare, she won't let me ride
Dm
I got a long grey mare, she won't let me ride
Em
She makes me brush her in the morning
Dm Am
And put her to bed every night
Verse 2 (Am Dm Am x 2 / Em Dm Am)
Long grey mare, why can't we be just like before
Long grey mare, why can't we be just like before
We used to ride so hard
Until we just couldn't ride no more
Break:
Verse 3 (Am Dm Am x 2 / Em Dm Am)
Look at me grey mare, don't I feed you everyday
Look at me grey mare, don't I feed you everyday
But when I dig you with my spurs
You turn around the other way
