BACK IN THE SADDLE AGAIN
Ecki Hüdepohl G-dur, 3/4,112 bpm
I remember the evening, when I decided to leave him
My chest seemed to burst, I felt low down and sick
I only could cry and I thought I would die
And I prayed it might happen real quick
I took my six string and started singing
A sad and bittersweet melody
Every word that I sang, every string that I twanged
Made me feel so much lighter and free
I'm back in the saddle again
Rain after sun and sun after rain
Every time when I fall, I get up and grin
I'm back in the saddle again
Solo
It's hard to get over a good former lover
But it's a sin to stay, when love's gone away.
If your only fear is being lonely
It is better to go separate ways
I'm back in the saddle again
Luck after bad luck and man after man
I'm not ashamed of the tears that I shed in vain
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back in the saddle again
Rain after sun and sun after rain
Every time when I fall, I get up and grin
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back in the saddle again
