My Favourite Christy Moore Song - Ride on By Jimmy McCarthy
True you ride the finest horse I've ever seen
Standing Sixteen one or two with eyes wild and green.
You ride that horse so well - hands light to the touch
I could never go with you no matter how i wanted to
Chorus:
Ride on see you, I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to x2
When you ride into the night without a trace behind
Run your claw along my gut
One last time
I turn to face an empty space where you used to lie
And look for the spark that lights the night
Through a teardrop in my eye.
You can play this song using the chords "Cm" "A" and "B",
or if you can's play bar chords, like little old me, you can use "Am", "F" and "G" - Happy Plucking!
