D                 C       G                    C
Some men sail the waters, some men live on the land
D           C              G                        C
I was born Apollo with the reins and the whip in my hand
D                C         G                      C
Where I take the ladies is something you've never seen
    D               C                 G
But nothing stops a man who flies and glides like a dying machine

G                D                F             G
I don't need the motions that are made for that hill
               D                   F            G
And I don't do half the things you think that I will
                D               F         G
And I don't see how you find it much of a thrill
       F                         A
That's unless you want to take a ride

Chorus:
D7              F G      C           G
Ride my chariot baby, my role is the sun
D7              F G      C              G
Ride my chariot baby, my steed's on the run
D7              F G         C          G
Ride my chariot baby, we're leaving by dawn
                                              D
Come on, come on, or else you're gonna see me gone
