On the G, hammer Fnote up to G on 6th E string
On the Cadd9, hammer B note up to C on 5th A string
On the Dsus4, hammer D to E on 4th D string, then G to A on 3rd string (quickly)
Wishin I could be an Indian
On a painted pony so fast
No one could ever catch me
Or get caught up in my past
Id ride across many rivers
Use many moons to tell time
And Id tell all the young warriors
Many moons ago this was mine all mine
Same ole river, same ole sea
Same ole water rushin over me
Same ole moon, same ole sun
Same ole race that weve always run
Same ole race that weve always run
Wishin I could be a pirate
And sail the ocean blue
Way before the big liners
Started sailin there too
And Ive buried most of my treasure
So I wouldnt leave a big hole
And the only real sense of pleasure I get
Is that I - sail free in my soul
Repeat Chorus
Wishin I could be a slave yall
It really wouldnt matter what kind
Id sing a song for fallen angels
And try to be free in my mind
Then when no one was lookin
Id drop my harness and plow
And Id find my old contemporaries
And wipe the shame from their brow
Repeat Chorus
Wishin I could be an outlaw
Ridin from the law sometime
An Ole vigilante against the seasons
But I cant help but read why
And I always keep my revolver
Steady and fast at my side
And Id rob a train bound for glory baby
If I thought I needed a ride
Repeat Chorus
So many things I aint ever done
