[Intro]
C#m G#m G A E E
[Verse]
C#m G#m A B E
Wise men spoke the vision Of the spirit horses way
C#m G#m G A E
Like a saviour he has a mission From the ashes of the plains
C#m G#m A B E
All the souls of mighty warriors Are carried in his veins
C#m G#m G A E
All the hopes of ancient nations Are flowing through his mane
[Chorus]
A C#m B
And the spirit voices say
C#m G#m A B E
Never chase a running shadow Underneath the midnight sky
C#m G#m G A E
Never chase a running shadow You will ride till you die
[Verse]
C#m G#m A B E
>From the badlands of Dakota One lone rider came
C#m G#m G A E
To catch the restless spirit They said could not be tamed
C#m G#m A B E
And he laughed at all the legends He called their stories lies
C#m G#m G A E
He called it superstition Foolish dreams of fading tries
[Chorus]
A C#m B
And the spirit voices cry
C#m G#m A B E
Never chase a running shadow Underneath the midnight sky
C#m G#m G A E
Never chase a running shadow You will ride till you die
[Instrumental]
C#m G#m G A E
[Verse]
C#m G#m A B E
Over hills and through dark canyons He chased the steel dust grey
C#m G#m G A E
But he could not catch the stallion He could not break his pace
C#m G#m A B E
He persued the racing phantom To the canyons edge
C#m G#m G A E
But running shadow jumped the chasm Left the outlaw on the ledge
[Chorus]
A C#m B
And the spirit voices say
C#m G#m A B E
Never chase a running shadow Underneath the midnight sky
C#m G#m G A E
Never chase a running shadow You will ride till you die
[Bridge]
