Verse:
       E         A
It was already August,
    B              E
The first blush of autumn
       Dbm           A         E
In the cheeks of the maple and ash
      E       A
I was so busy mindin'
   B             E        Dbm
My business that I didn't see her
         A           E
'til she asked me to dance

Verse:
      E             A
Now I don't like my chances
   B           E         Dbm
Of puttin' her beauty in words
         A         E
But I'll give it a try:
    E            B
Her eyes were as blue as
       E        A
A Hank Williams song
        Dbm
And her voice is like
   B        E
an old lullaby

Chorus:
   B
If wishes were horses
     E
we'd ride together
A           E               B
Chasing the wind 'cross the plains
   Dbm         B         E
If longing was midsummer rain
    A        E
I'd turn the canyons
     Dbm  B       E    A E
Into deep rivers again

Verse:
    E          A
The dancefloor was hot
   B             E
As greenhouse in June
        Dbm        A         E
And the band swung like a trapeze
      E        A
And I held her as close
   B              E         Dbm
As I dare to then spun her around
       A           E
Like a leaf in the breeze

Verse:
E         A
One song, one dance
B             E
Sometimes you only get
Dbm           A          
One chance to let you
E
love show
    E           
And I still can't
B
explain
      E        A
Why I hid mine away
       Dbm      B     
Like a daffodil under
 E
 the snow

Chorus:
   B
If wishes were horses
     E
we'd ride together
A           E             
Chasing the wind 'cross
B
the plains
   Dbm         B       
If longing was midsummer
 E
 rain
    A        E
I'd turn the canyons
     Dbm  B       E    A
Into deep rivers again

Verse:
   E        A
No whiskey, no gin
   E       A
No trouble I'm in
    Dbm           A     E
Can chase her out of my mind
E            B
Where do you go
     E           A
When time passes slow
    Dbm      B        
And love has left you
E
behind?

Chorus:
   B
If wishes were horses
     E
we'd ride together
A           E             
Chasing the wind 'cross
B
the plains
   Dbm         B         E
If longing was midsummer rain
    A        E
I'd turn the canyons
     Dbm  B       E
Into deep rivers again
   B
If wishes were horses
     E
we'd ride together
A           E             
Chasing the wind 'cross
B
the plains
   Dbm         B         E
If longing was midsummer rain
    A        E
I'd turn the canyons
