Intro lick C   Cmaj7            Fmaj7   Fmaj9 (hammer on 2nd string 3rd fret)

          C   Cmaj7            Fmaj7   Fmaj9She comes down     from Yellow Mountain
C      Cmaj7               Fmaj7   Fmaj9  On a dark, flat land she rides
F                        Em     On a pony she named Wildfire
F                     Em     Whirlwind by her side
Dm                   Em     (intro lick)   On a cold Nebraska night.


          C   Cmaj7            Fmaj7   Fmaj9Oh, they say she died one winter
          C   Cmaj7            Fmaj7   Fmaj9When there came an early frost
F                        EmAnd the pony she named Wildfire
F                        EmBusted down its stall,
Dm                   Em     In a blizzard she was lost.

                          F      EmCHORUS:   She ran calling Wild---fire,
                          F      Em          She ran calling Wild---fire,
                  F     Em         Dm     G        C  (intro lick)          calling Wi----i----ld----fi----i----re.

C       Cmaj7              Fmaj7   Fmaj9 By the dark of the moon I planted
C          Cmaj7         Fmaj7   Fmaj9 But there came an early snow.
F                               Em     Been a hoot owl howlin' outside my window now,
F                        Em     For six nights in a row.
Dm                       Em   She's comin' for me, I know
       Dm                       EmAnd on Wildfire we're both gonna go.
