[Verse]
E
Oh the sun shines bright over old Kentucky
E
Over old Kentucky on the derby day
A E
They let him run, they let the big horse run
B
Please Mrs Tweedy
C#m
I saw him on the T.V.
F# B
Send him out to run in the California sun
[Chorus]
E B
And let him run, let him run
C#m A E
Let me see the big horse run
D A B E
Let him run Let him run
D A B E
Let him run Let him run
[Verse]
E
Swaps, Citation, Man O'War
E
Never saw a horse like that before
A E
Let him run, let the big horse run
B
Running is an itch
C#m
He's got to scratch
F# B
No offense to old Dan Patch
[Chorus]
E B
But let him run, let him run
C#m A E
Let me see the big horse run
D A B E
Let him run, let him, oh let him, let him run
D A B E
Let him run, let him, oh let him, let him run
[Verse]
E
Spending his time in the field with the ladies
E
In the field with the ladies he can't complain
A E
But let him run, oh let the big horse run
B
One more time
C#m
Out on the track
F# B
Saddle the wind and get up on his back
[Chorus]
E B
But let him run, let him run
C#m A E
Let me see the big horse run
D A B E
Let him run, let him, oh let him, let him run
D A B E
Let him run, let him, oh let him, let him run
