[Verse 1]
  D               C          D                D                             C       D
I rode across the great high plains under the scorching sun and through the driving rain.
           D                    C         G      D             C        D
And when I set my sights on the mountains high I bid my former life goodbye.

[Chorus]
    G     F    D      C    G D              G  F  D       C      D
So, thank you, man, I must decline for it's on my steed I will rely.
     G       F  D        G F   D              C              G             G
I've learned to need the o-pen sky; well, I'm subject to the natural forces.
                 D             D
Home is where my horse is.

[Verse 2]
   D            C    D           D                C  D
We loaded up in Buffalo and took 90 south down to Ohio,
   D            C      G                D                    C     D
on 80 west, I'm Frisco-bound and when I get there, I'll turn back around.

[Chorus]
    G     F    D      C    G D              G  F     D        C        D
So, thank you, man, I must decline for it's on these eighteen wheels I ride.
  G       F  D        G  F    D              C              G             G
I learned to need the western sky, well, I'm subject to the natural forces.
                 D             D
Home is where my horse is.

[Verse 3]
    D               C       D             D                  C      D
And every year they come to town and then drag 'em all right in the round.
    D           C         G            D                   C       D
And Mr. Bradley calls the score of the cowboy there who'll try for more.

[Chorus]
    G     F    D      C    G D              G  F  D          C     D
So, thank you, man, I must decline for it's on my three-year-old I ride.
         G    F   D       G    F   D          C              G             G
And I'll spin and run and stop and slide, I'm subject to the natural forces.
                 D             D
Home is where my horse is.

[Interlude]

[Verse 4]
    D                C     D              D                C        D
The Cherokee and the Chickasaw, the Creek Seminole and the old Chocktaw;
   D              C          G         D             C         D
we volunteered to move, they say we'll understand on Judgement Day.

[Chorus]
    G     F    D      C    G D              G  F     D        C      D
So, thank you, man, I must decline for it's on this trail of tears I ride.
     G    F   D         G   F    D        C                 G/B              G
I've done the road, the homeless sky; sometimes at night, I hear their voices.
                 D             D
Home is where my horse is.

[Verse 5]
    D             C       D           D                       C  D
Now as I sit here safe at home with a cold Coors Lite and the TV on;
    D                     C         G            D                   C        D
all the sacrifice and the death and woe. Lord, I pray that I'm worth fighting for.

[End-Chorus]
    G     F    D      C    G D              G  F  D C   D
So, thank you, man, I must decline for it's on my RPG I ride.
     G     F   D        G F  D               C              G/B              G
'Til earth and hell are satisfied. Well, I'm subject to the natural forces
    C                  G              G
and sometimes at night   I hear their voices.
                 D             D
Home is where my horse is.

[Outro]
C                  D         D       C      G       D
  Home is where my horse is.
