[Verse 1]
      C
Let's go play some money on the 
order the horses
Break the ribbon of that famous 
       F
finish line
And then gather up our stash, babe; 
C
find a little ranch, babe
          G                     C
And buy a lonely little pony to ride

[Verse 2]
       C
Well I knew I was lucky when a 
needle came and stuck me
A porcupine came and poked this 
       F
cactus hide
Let me finish what I start, babe; 
C
open up your heart, babe
           G                       
I'll sow a land of milk and honey 
       C     C7
in your mind

[Chorus]
   F                   G          
Oh flesh and blood has found me in
      C
 your arms again
          C                      
I see the whisper of the wind has 
            G
found your hair again
              C                   
And though my heart said "give me 
C7              F          Fm
refuge" in your dignity my dear
            C           G         
All I could do is put a seashell 
       C
to your ear

[Chorus]
   F                   G          
Oh flesh and blood has found me in
      C
 your arms again
          C                      
I see the whisper of the wind has 
            G
found your hair again
              C                   
And though my heart said "give me 
C7              F          Fm
refuge" in your dignity my dear
            C           G         
All I could do is put a seashell 
       C
to your ear
