Intro
G – Em – C – D
Verse 1
G
Down by the Lower Rhine they met,
Em
two hearts in open air,
C
a stable full of dreams and hay,
D
love was waiting there.
G
Michaela laughs in carnival lights,
Em
with friends through every year,
C
Eifel hills and Kitzbühel snow,
D
but home is always here.
Chorus
G
Ten years hand in hand,
D
through sunshine, wind and rain,
Em
six horses in the pasture,
C
a dog runs down the lane.
G
When the sunset hits the barn
D
in golden evening glow,
C
they know this simple life
D
is all they’ll ever need to know.
Verse 2
G
Volker builds from almost nothing,
Em
turns wood and time to gold,
C
Borussia on a Sunday game,
D
stories always told.
G
Grill smoke in the summer air,
Em
water running through the ground,
C
Willy waits beside the gate,
D
for another riding round.
Bridge
Em
Country songs on the radio,
C
wine glasses in the night,
G
dreaming of long riding trails
D
under open sky and light.
Final Chorus
G
Ten years is just the start,
D
their road goes on and on,
Em
with horses, love and laughter
C
from dusk until the dawn.
G
And someday looking back
D
at all the miles they ran,
C
they’ll say they’d live it all again
D
just the way it began.
Outro: G – Em – C – D – G
