From: [email protected] ( Junacko)
The original version of this is 3 guitars.
Acoustic 1 ("Nashville tuning"- low 3 strings an octave up)
this is the one which starts the song off, there are no bass
strings which gives it that high sound. After the intro it
mainly plays harmonics
Acoustic 2 (Open G- D G D G B D)
this is the main acoustic throughout the song. If I get some
requests I will put this part down.
Electric 3 (Standard tuning)
this is Mick Taylor's classic backing and superb solo. If I get
_lots_ of requests I might summon the energy to tab the solo, if
I get hundreds I might even tab the whole part.
For now, I will just do CRD. Despite having 3 guitars on the original
recording, this one sounds surprisingly full with just 1 acoustic
(standard tuning) and voice.

Giii 7 10 9 7 8 7
In the third verse, you can replace the Am7 with an Am9. (Althoughnow that I listen to it, I think the ninth is actually coming from
7/27/2019 Wild Horses Chords
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/wild-horses-chords 5/12
the lead guitar. But it still sounds nice to use Am9 for a littlevariety, especially with only one guitar)
I would appreciate any suggestions or corrections.

I've fooled with the song some. Not real sure about the exactplacement of these chords. Trust your ear.

Wild Horses
by The Rolling Stonestranscription by: Ken Friedson and Ed Finegold
Intro:There are two guitar parts at the intro.The rhythm is the same as the verse,the lead is built off of the Bm pentatonic, the notes are:
(fret/string)10/1,8/1,7/1,5/1
Listen to it, it'll take about two seconds to figure it out.
Verse 1:
Bm G Bm G
I heard living is easy to do
Am C D G D Cthe pains you wanted, I bought them for you
note: the D and the last C are transitional chords, a quickdown-up-down-up and then change to the next chord
Bm G Bm GGraceless lady, you know I am
Am C D G DYou know I can't let you, slide through my hands
Chorus:
Am C D G F C DWild Horses, couldn't drag me away
Am C D G F CWild Horses, couldn't drag me away
(again those D chords are transitional)

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/wild-horses-chords 9/12
Verse 2:
Bm G Bm GI watched you suffer, a dull aching pain
Am C D G D CNow you've decided, to show me the same
Bm G Bm GThose sweeping exits, whoa off stage lines
Am C D G Dcould make me be bitter, and treat you unkind
Chorus
Verse 3:
Bm G Bm GI know I dreamed you, a sin and a lie
Am C D G D CI have my freedom, but I don't have much time
Bm G Bm GFaith has been broken, tears must be cried
Am C D G DLet's do some living, after we die
Choruslast line sung as:
Wild horses, I'm gonna ride them some day
Either fade it out or end with a: D(transitional) G
Note: A quick listen to the album will show you what I meanabout those transitional chords. Also, I did my best toshow where the changes fall, but as you play it you'llget the nuances. Some of the changes just hang a bit longerthan others.

BRIDGE:
There are like 3 acoustic tracks plus more electric here so you can playjust about any voicing of these chords and the notes are probably in theresomewhere.
Fmaj9 (X03010) Cmaj9 (X3001) X 4
the turnaround back into verse is (X320XX) (X540XX)
NOW for the 2nd guitar part during the CHORUS:
I'm going to butcher the time but listen carefully to the song andyou will get it. note the interesting syncopation though (tricky)
Play on high 2 strings:Wild...
12-12-12-12| eighth note each 10-10-10-10 1 sixteenth note each
10-10-10-10| 12-12-12-12
