I was in Paris
                      Em
Waiting for a flight

When this guy came up
                A
To me and said
                       E
Have you got a light?

             A        D
When I was born in Arizona
         A            E
And when I was only three
            A              D
My mother took me to her saddle
        A         E   A
And we rode the wide prairie


          D               A
Oh, wide prairie, wide prairie
         E       A     E7
And we rode the wide prairie
           A              D
My mother took me to her saddle
        A        E     A
And we rode the wide prairie

             A            D
Well I was raised in Aspebueller
         A           E
And when I was only ten
            A              D
My father took me to his saddle
        A         E7     A
And we rode the range again

           D             A
Oh, wide prairie, wide prairie
        E        A      E7
And we rode the wide prairie
            A              D
My father took me to his saddle
         A       E7      A
And we rode the wide prairie

And I ain't going back
                   B
No, I ain't going back
               E
Going back no more

               A          D
Well, now we live in Albuquerque
         A               E
And we raise the family tree
               A             D
We spend our days a-feeling perky
        A        E      A
And we ride the wide prairie


           D              A
Oh, wide prairie, wide prairie
         E       A     E7
And we ride the wide prairie
               A
We spend our days
            D
A-feeling perky
        A         E    A
And we ride the wide prairie
