************** SIX WHITE HORSES ***************

performed by Waylon Jennings.


Verse 1:
                                           
Come here and look through the window Marie
                                           
Open up the shutters,tell me what you see
                                            
Was that his knock that i heard at the door
                                               
Or is it six white horses coming down the road


Verse 2:
                                               
Come here and touch me and say that it s alright
                                                   
You know that to my eyes the days are as the nights
                                                    
Read again the letter that tells me where he s gone
                                             
To hell with the fighting i want my son home


Verse 3:
                                                  
I taught him to fish and i taught him to be strong
                                            
I taught him that killing any man was wrong
                                                  
But tommorrow in battle i d run to where he stood
                                             
If the help of a blind man would do any good


Break ().


Verse 4:(a tone higher)
                                       
Last night i went to his room for awhile
                                                    
I ve touched all the things that he used as a child
                                         
I rocked the cradle where he used to lay
                                            
I found his tin soldiers and threw them away


Verse 5:(idem)
                                         
Come here and look through the window Marie
                                          
Open up the shutters,tell me what you see
                                            
Was that his knock that i heard at the door
                                            
Or is it six white horses coming up the road


You can play G#m (and the others same way):  ||||||
