lyrics

D
Before the saddle and the blanket
A
In the west were mustangs free
D
Before the saddle and the blanket
G b d g Aa e ac# D
Wild is how mustangs were made, and always, meant to be

D
Broken promises and treaties...
A
Broke the spirit of horse and man
D
Before the saddle and the blanket
G A D
Rode the freedom among the mustang band

D
Don’t call them cayuse or broncos
A
Mustang’s the name by which they're known
D
Before the saddle and the blanket
G A D
Mustangs ran the range which was their home

D
No owners gave them freedom
A
To run like Sun filled Wind
D
There’s no reason in God’s creation
G A D
We can’t let ‘em run, let ‘em run, let 'em run free

D
Let'em run, let'em run free
A
Let'em run, let'em run free
D
Let'em run, let'em run free
A
Let'em run, let'em run free

D
Before the saddle and the blanket
A D
Mustangs, like the wind, were running, free
