[Verse]

      Em                    G
I was three days’ ride from Tulsa
   Bm             Em
en route to Santa Fe
    G
and there beneath the blazing sun
   Bm
my horse began to sway.

    Em             G
Was then I heard a thunderous sound
     C         A
come risin’ up behind:
    C
the hoofbeats of twelve horsemen,
      B                   Em
their course locked on to mine.

[Chorus]

      G            Em
White Rider, White Rider,
      C                            
ain’t fixin’ for to join your fated
 Am   A
 line.
      C            A    Am   A
White Rider, White Rider,
      C                 B7        
don’t come to claim me ’fore I had
    Em
 my time.

    Em                   G
Was four days’ ride from Tulsa,
    Bm              Em
the Riders still in tow.
          G
They were dressed in white from toe 
to tip,
     Bm
pale horses trod below.

    Em               G
And last among their number,
  C                 A
a chilling sight to see:
    C
the thirteenth horse lay empty
       B                Em
with a saddle meant for me.

[Chorus]

      G            Em
White Rider, White Rider,
      C                            
ain’t fixin’ for to join your fated
 Am   A
 line.
      C            A    Am   A
White Rider, White Rider,
      C                 B7        
don’t come to claim me ’fore I had
    Em
 my time.

    Em                   E
Was five day’s ride from Tulsa
       Bm               Em
when I pitched into the sand:
   G
my legs gave out, my body lacked
    Bm                 B
the strength enough to stand.

    Em              G
The Horsemen moved upon me then,
      C            A
their leader to my side
      C                Am
said “Son, I think the time has come
   B             Em
to saddle up and ride.”

[Chorus]

      G            Em
White Rider, White Rider,
      C                            
well, day will come we all will 
       A
join that line.
      C            A
White Rider, White Rider,
     C                B            
they come to claim me now I had my 
Em
time.
