VERSE:
C
An empty pack of Marlboro reds
F C
Sitting by the bed
Am7 F
I can still see Mama crying on the phone

And I sorta still remember who I was that September
Am7 F
Before she told me he was really gone
PRE-CHORUS:

But he just kept on going
Dm7
I thought he'd turn around
F
But I know better now
CHORUS:
Am G F C
Oooh, oooh, you can't fence 'em in
Am G F C
Oooh, oooh, they were born to run and then
G Am G
You think you've got 'em where you want 'em

Half broke horses

They never come back home

VERSE:
C
I've tried hard not to be like Mama
F C
But blood's thicker than water
Am7 F
And I fell for the way he said my name

And we made love wild and crazy
F C
He wanted me to have his baby
Am7
But I should've known
F
There's some things that you can't change
PRE-CORUS:
Dm C
I stood on the front porch crying
F C
But he just kept on driving
Dm7
I thought he'd turn around
F
But I know better now

Oooh, oooh, you can't fence 'em in
Am G F C
Oooh, oooh, they were born to run and then
G Am G
You think you've got 'em where you want 'em
C F
Then they leave you all alone
C
Half broke horses
G C C
They never come back home
BREAK:
F
Now I watch that little girl
Am
By the window as she plays

Those plastic ponies are a story

She's gonna have to hear someday
G Am G
She's gonna need to hear me say-ay
CHORUS:
F C
You can't fence 'em in
Am G F C
No, no, 'cause they were born to run and then
G Am G
You think you've got 'em where you want 'em
C F
Then they leave you all alone
C
Half broke horses
G Am
They never come back home
G F
And half broke horses
G
They never come back
C
Home
