Bruce Springsteen - Chasin' Wild Horses Lyrics






Guess it was somethin' I shouldn't have done
Guess I regret it now
Ever since I was a kid
Tryin' to keep my temper down is like
Chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses
Chasin' wild horses

Left my home, left my friends
I didn't say goodbye
I contract out to the BLM
Up on the Montana line
Chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses

We're out before sunup
In after sundown
There's two men in the chopper
Two under saddle on the ground
In the evenings we'd hop in the pickup
Head into town for a drink
Make sure I work 'til I'm so damn tired
Way too tired to think

You lose track of time
It's all just storms blowin' through
You come rollin' 'cross my mind
Your hair flashin' in the blue
Like wild horses, just like wild horses
Just like wild horses

Fingernail moon in a twilight sky
Ridin' high grass of the switchback
I shout your name into the canyon
The echo throws it back

The winter snow whites out the plains
'Til it can turn me blind
The only thing up here I've found
Is tryin' to get you off my mind
Chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses
Chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses

    And the brass section?

  5. S.... R....

    Espetácular

  6. C.... C....

    That moment when the orchestral strings join in, literally makes my skin break out with goosebumps. Sheer ethereal beauty for the ears and soul. Thank you Mr Springsteen for giving so many of us, so much pleasure over so many years.

  7. D.... k....

    Chasing wild horses in Rdr2 while listening to this song is one epic expirience

    "Chasin' Wild Horses"

    Guess it was somethin' I shouldn't have done
    Guess I regret it now
    Ever since I was a kid
    Tryin' to keep my temper down is like
    Chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses
    Chasin' wild horses

    Left my home, left my friends
    I didn't say goodbye
    I contract out to the BLM
    Up on the Montana line
    Chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses

    We're out before sunup
    In after sundown
    There's two men in the chopper
    Two under saddle on the ground
    In the evenings we'd hop in the pickup
    Head into town for a drink
    Make sure I work 'til I'm so damn tired
    Way too tired to think

    You lose track of time
    It's all just storms blowin' through
    You come rollin' 'cross my mind
    Your hair flashin' in the blue
    Like wild horses, just like wild horses
    Just like wild horses

    Fingernail moon in a twilight sky
    Ridin' high grass of the switchback
    I shout your name into the canyon
    The echo throws it back

    The winter snow whites out the plains
    'Til it can turn me blind
    The only thing up here I've found
    Is tryin' to get you off my mind
    Chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses
    Chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses

  12. J.... H....

    This taps into the rhythm of my heartbeat and heals it while at the same time shattering it into pieces that cannot be put together except by another song, mixture of word and rhyme. God I’m happy to be alive to experience this!

  13. I.... K....

    Bruce....LOVE THIS ALBUM
    Did you something know abouth the wild horses....the mustangs...
    Did you know abouth Mustang make over?????
    50000 wild horses want find a new home......they are still arrestet....it is so so sad.
    A germanbloodbrucesister from Stuttgart

    We help the mustangs......what we can do for that lovely horses🐎

  16. M.... ....

    I Love You Bruce springsteen

  17. s.... a....

    Un album pour rouler des kilomètres dans de superbes paysages, sans risquer de rencontrer un highway patrolman ou des used cars au détour d'une ville abandonnée !

  18. N.... R....

    Now that I feel like I got nothing, I come back to this song. A good choice, clearly.

  19. t.... ....

    ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💕💕💕💕💖💖💖💖🧡🧡🧡❤❤❤❤💘💝

  20. B.... H....

    great album.

  21. G.... V....

    You're so Amaizing... Since I heard Though than The Rest, I became in Your follower!!! Regards from San Luis Potosí, Mx.

  22. P.... W....

    these words are so true ,ime too tired to think !

  23. M.... ....

    Wonderful, sad, some hope and brings the listener back to the ground. Thanks Boss.....one more masterpiece

  24. g.... ....

    Sorry not feelin the love. I go back to 1975 with the Boss

    g.... ....

    The orchestration in this must move you surely? It is utterly sublime.

    g.... ....

    People change and grow and so does their art. Bruce has been evolving since album # 1.

  25. D.... M....

    Loving this Song alot "" Beautiful""⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  26. M.... H....

    I love it ...

  27. m.... a....

    j'aime les USA quand vous les chantez comme ça, merci Mr Springsteen

  28. P.... G....

    Sorry, Mr. Springsteen, this album is one of your very best ever. Since Tunnel of Love have never been that deep into your lyrics and songs. Concerts yes, always. Ever since. Go touring with this stuff...

  29. J.... K....

    Others repose upon their laurels, but my man, Bruce just reborn all the time. Truly great music right here

  30. N.... ....

    Recycled from Your Own Worst Enemy...

    N.... ....

    I thought exactly the same thing !!! There is a line or 2 where the the melody is the same. And the Western Stars track to me has elements of All That Heaven Will Allow. Still love the man and all he does. He d be the first to admit that he sits on songs and reworks them...so its not a criticism from me..just an observation

  31. V.... S....

    This song is beautiful and sad.❤

  32. J.... M....

    This is my story..... Thank you. Jill ... Upstate NY...😘

  33. M.... L....

    i ve been raving about this album to anyone who'll listen, the shocking thing many people don't like Springsteen, scratching my head, this guy has been consistently great thru his career, and many of these critics are from NY or NJ

  34. P.... G....

    Just beautiful

  35. S.... M....

    Up there with His best music . I love the Boss

  36. D.... H....

    I love everything he produces, but this song and album might be the best. A highly underrated voice has its day and, when combined with the orchestra, is simply stunning. I can't stop listening to this album...I might even tear up at times....

  37. K.... B....

    Album of the year for sure.

  38. S.... E....

    Sounds to me like a song that would work well in a western movie or one like Broke Back Mountain.

  39. D.... N....

    Trump wont stay forever. The good, old US-america is coming back!

  40. j.... c....

    Stunning. Breathtaking. Gorgeous. Bruce, please change your mind and tour in support of this magnificent record, your best in years and years.

  41. C.... H....

    Bruce + orchestra + pedal steel guitar + banjo = a song like no other.

  42. W.... M....

    master class lyric writer, here kids

  43. G.... M....

    I close my eyes: I'm in the great american parks, I'm driving, the wind in my air...
    Thank you my friend, this song is a masterpiece!

  44. E.... K....

    Who could have ever predicted what he'd do releasing a record like this in 2019? I can't stop listening, hard to believe. Stunningly beautiful.

    E.... K....

    Exactly!

    E.... K....

    I could have predicted it. You could have predicted it, the man is the king, hes unbelievable

    E.... K....

    @Larry Carstensen What a long ways from Spirit in the Night. Or perhaps not :)

    E.... K....

    @Larry Carstensen agree

  45. C.... D....

    Love this album

  46. P.... B....

    I'm totally blown away by this album. At a time of life when most artist's mojo has long since deserted them he comes up with this magnum opus. There really is only one Boss.

  47. J.... j....

    One of the best this world will ever see. So unique.. I love that Bruce sticks to what he does best, and doesn't try to change his image and sound to please the latest trend. Love Bruce so much, and am so, so, so grateful that he is still gifting us with such beautiful music.

  48. D.... ....

    Simply incredible

  49. F.... R....

    Strong irish influences here

  50. R.... B....

    It seems a song from the imaginary movie titled "The Boss forever".

  51. C.... P....

    Me encanta 😘

  52. G.... M....

    Great job, as always. A never ending artist.

  53. A.... G....

    There Goes My Miracle. Now, where's my money ?

    F.... D....

    Bruuuce ❤.

  70. V.... a....

    Bruce has got it all. Golden.

  71. S.... M....

    This is one of the most beautifully composed, arranged and orchestrated songs I've heard and felt in my heart in ages. The entire album is EPIC.

    S.... M....

    It's his best in a long, long time. That's not to say that any of them have been weak, but this album is majestic from start to finish

    S.... M....

    @derek rickard I've been saying since Born in the USA, but yes- I rank it in his top five.

    S.... M....

    @Alastair Meiklejohn Springsteen is my hero, and some of them have been weak. He seemed lost in the early to mid-90s.

    S.... M....

    Suzanne, (which is a beautiful name) agree with you 100%. This is a truly beautiful cd or album, whichever you have. Love all aspects of it!!!

    S.... M....

    I went and saw the movie(concert) today. Was so amazing!
