Horses on the Highway
Artist:  Chuck Pyle
>From the "Step by Step"  album

This is not exactly what Chuck does but it is very close and will serve as a
place to start when making this song part of your repertiore.  The guitar
part is really a series of riffs strung together.   It is really difficult to
place the words exactly where they should be on the tab, so I just showed
which words go with which riff.  Listen to Chuck sing it and then stylize it
to yourself.

Here is how the various riffs fit into the song:

(Riff 1 repeated over and over)
Saw your other lover on the road last night
So close I brushed his sleeve
Felt my old reaction but I did not throw down
Didn't want to bring him the release
(Riff 2A)    (Riff 2B)
One and one and one other is three
(Riff 2A)    (Riff 2B)
Three is such a painful way to be
(Riff 2A)    (Riff 2B)
Either your with him or your with me
(Riff 2A)  (Riff 3)
Gotta set one of us free

REFRAIN (See Tab)
(Riff 4A)
Horses on the highway
(Riff 4B)       (Riff 4C twice)
Fences down to the wire
(Riff 4A)
Horses on the highway
(Riff 4B)  (Riff 4C twice)
Ain't no fencin' desire

Bridge using Riff 2A once - then goe to Riff 1


Free as a cloud wanders the sky
My rider's by myside
Makin' a run down to Ohi
Wanna come along for the ride
Somebody's steady rollin' man
Don't want nobodies second hand
If you've been makin' other plans
Better find a safe place to stand

REFRAIN
 
Cupid took a shot divided by the sun
Into two separate sides
One side was light the other  was dark
As dark as part of my mine 
One's a sun one's a moon theat merely shine
Everything in the sky is not divine
Either your his or your mine
Gotta be just one at a time

REFRAIN

Horses on the highway
Fences down to the wirew
Horses on the highway
Ain't no fencin' desire
