Back In The Saddle
(Tyler, Perry)
6:11
I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again
Ridin' into town alone by the light of the moon
I'm lookin' for old Sukie Jones, she crazy horse saloon
Barkeep gimme a drink, that's when she caught my eye
She turned to give me a wink, that make a grown man cry
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
Come easy, go easy, all right until the rising sun
I'm calling all the shots tonight, I'm like a loaded gun
Peelin' off my boots and chaps, I'm saddle sore
Four bits gets you time in the rack, I scream for more
Fools go out of their minds, the girls are soaking wet
No tongue's drier than mine, I'll come when I get back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm ridin'
I'm loadin' up my pistol
I'm ridin'
I really got a fistful
I'm ridin'
I'm shinin' up my saddle
I'm ridin'
This snake is gonna rattle
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
Ridin' high
Ridin' high
Ridin' high

They play this part 4x on verse 1, then chorus, then 2x on verse 2 which then goes into another similar riff on a different chord. I'll be working out this part next, so that will be the next installment! Also I'll try to tab out some of the solo licks at the end where Joe goes nuts!

Happy playing!
