Ride Forever
composed by Paul Gross and David Keeley
performed by Paul Gross

E
Well I was born up north of Great Slave, 1898,
A
and I rode near all my life on a ranch near Devil's Gate.
E
And I've seen this world about me bend and flip and change.
B A
Hey it feels like rain -- that's a thundercloud.
E
Well I've been called a coward, but I've seen two World Wars.
A
And I lost my son Virgil, a Korean reward.
E
And my Lucy died last summer. You ask me if I cry,
B Cm
Hell, I'll show you tears: they're all over this ground,
A B E
they're falling from these blue Alberta skies.
Chorus:
E B
We're gonna ride forever,
Cm A
You can't keep horsemen in a cage.
E B
Should the angels call, well it's only then
A
We might pull in the reins.
E
Now they tell me I'm an old man, they tell me I am blind.
A
They took my driver's license, this house ain't far behind.
E
I said "Jump back all you big suits, you got something wrong
B A
'cause I ain't gone. No I ain't gone."
E
I am still breathing, and I still have my pride.
A
And I have my memories, your life it never dies.
E
Like the wind that blows in thunder, like the stallion on the fly
B Cm
I got it all, and I'm standing tall
A B E
Underneath these blue Alberta skies.
chorus
E
So I say to all you old men: Don't let yourselves get broke.
A
If you think the world's gone crazy and it's scratching at your throat
E
it's time to dust off that old saddle and get it on a horse.
B Cm
Kick up your spurs: we're gonna run like stink
A B E
We're gonna tear across these blue Alberta skies.
chorus
