[Verse 1]
C#m B A B
It's another night in Los Angeles
C#m B A B
My passport is restless in my boot
C#m B A B
And my thoughts take wings to wonder
C#m A B
"Get up" they say man "vamoose"
C#m B A B
And I think about my thoughts of Paris
C#m B A B
Of fine wine, women and precious things
C#m B A B
And I think about my life on the midnight highway
C#m B A
The life of a renegade king
[Verse 2]
E C#m
Twenty years they've called me a bandit
E C#m
Twenty years I've been on the run
E C#m
Twenty years defending my honor
E C#m F#m E
Twenty years harming no one
[Chorus]
B A
And I ride
C#m A C#m
I ride alone, yes I ride, I ride alone
[Verse 3]
E C#m
They say there goes a strange one
E C#m
He sits back to the wall
E C#m
Noticing conversation
E C#m F#m E
Rarely speaking at all
[Chorus]
B A C#m
And he rides, he rides alone
A C#m
Yes he rides, he rides alone
[Verse 4]
E C#m
It's true I'm not much on talking
E C#m
It's true there's not much I know
E C#m
But one thing I've learned for certain
E C#m F#m E
You reap whatever you sow
[Chorus]
B A C#m
And you ride, you ride alone
A C#m
Yes you ride, you ride alone
[Verse 4]
E C#m
There's a hawk high in the heaven
E C#m
A truly magnificent bird
E C#m
He waits on wings of silver
E C#m F#m E
To bring the glorious word
[Chorus]
B A C#m
And he flies, he flies alone
A C#m
Yes he flies, he flies alone
